Restoring the SysVol
You can perform a restore of SysVol directory in one of three modes:
• Nonauthoritative restore
If at least one domain controller in the domain is available and
working, files are restored to their original location. The restored data
is not propagated to other domain controllers.
• Authoritative restore
Perform an authoritative restore if critical SysVol data is deleted
from the local domain controller and the deletion is propagated to
other domain controllers.
• Primary restore
If all domain controllers in the domain are lost and you want to
rebuild a domain controller from backup, the FRS is informed that
you are restoring primary files, and files are restored to their original
location.
