AD Restore in Windows 2008

[ComputTech]

I'm trying to find the command (option) which has replaced "restore database" command from Windows 2003.
Is there any command that does the same job on Windows 2008?

Thank you

Any idea?

HI,

Are you trying to do a Non-authoritive restore or a authoritive restore (do you have any other AD servers)

I want to test in a lab the option, when we want to do nonauthoritative restore in multi DC environment, under assumption that there are problems with existing database, and nonauthoritave restore to overwrite existing one. In Windows 2003, you have to do nonauthoritative restore, and after that make complete restore as authoritative, using command "restore database".

does

ntdsutil authoritative restore

work?
