    Today AD FS is made highly available by setting up an AD FS farm. Some organizations would like a way to have a single server AD FS deployment, eliminating the need for multiple AD FS servers and network load balancing infrastructure, while still having some assurance that service can be restored quickly if there is a problem. The new AD FS Rapid Restore tool provides a way to restore AD FS data without requiring a full backup and restore of the operating system or system state. You can use the new tool to export AD FS configuration either to Azure or to an on-premises location. Then you can apply the exported data to a fresh AD FS installation, re-creating or duplicating the AD FS environment.
  • Supported Operating Systems

    Windows Server 2016, Windows Server 2012 R2, Windows Server 2019, Windows Server 2022

    This tool works for AD FS in Windows Server 2012 R2 and later. The required .NET framework is at least 4.0. The restore must be done on an AD FS server of the same version as the backup and that uses the same Active Directory account as the AD FS service account.
