I have been searching all over for this information, but I can't seem to find any.
When I test an AD restore of a sub-domain in a setting where a Root Domain DC is not present (because we test our restores in a completely isolated network) do I also need to restore a root domain controller? I am starting to work on my new DR scheme for AD, but this is the first time that I had to worry about the root domain where I didn't have security to access it or its backup files (the root controllers are maintained by a different Division than the one I'm in). Of course, in a true DR situation, I should have at least one root controller available. Thanks.
