SDR is not supported for Windows Server 2012 in Backup Exec 2012 SP2. However, if you have the disaster recovery information file and the backup sets from when you backed up the earlier version of Windows, you can perform a local SDR recovery. If you do not have the disaster recovery information file, you can use Backup Exec to perform a manual disaster recovery.

For more information about performing a manual disaster recovery, refer to the following topics in the Backup Exec Administrator's Guide:

• About manual disaster recovery of Windows computers
• About a manual disaster recovery of a local Windows computer (includes non-authoritative and authoritative restore of Active Directory for a domain controller)
• Running a manual disaster recovery of a local Windows computer (includes non-authoritative and authoritative restore of Active Directory for a domain controller)
• About a disaster recovery operation of a remote Windows computer (includes non-authoritative and authoritative restore of Active Directory for a domain controller)
