Virtual AD
-
Version
2.0
VirtualAD (Virtual Active Directory) is a health &
design checking, planning, reporting, simulation and
troubleshooting tool for Windows 2000 & 2003 Active
Directory infrastructures.
VirtualAD gets all relevant design information from
your active directory and allows you to perform
design checks and simulations on the current
situation but also on planned situations (e.g. adding
a new site). VirtualAD never changes your Active
Directory, it uses its own database for all checks
and simulations.
With VirtualAD you can create over 15 reports on the
health, robustness and configuration of your Active
Directory infrastructure.
Virtual AD provides the user with the ability to
visualize your Active Directory design &
implementation and perform multiple of design checks
on the infastructure including: inter-site link
anomalies, replication times between sites, IP subnet
definitions and overlaps, identification of redundant
links.
Plan & test Active Directory expansion scenarios in
advance to determine where new sites and links could
be placed, and the implications on replication
durations. Simulate problems and disasters by
visualizing the impact on your AD replications of a
telecom link, entire site disaster or single server
failure. Provide health & configuration reports on
your active directory
Troubleshoot a host of operational issues by:
providing the average loading of the Active Directory
tasks of servers, identifying IP subnets that have
not yet been defined in your Active Directory, but
are in use by clients.
Identifying where the Active Directory replication is
not following your link configurations.
By providing flexibility in the way this
functionality is used, you can do many more complex
simulations or design checks, by adding/removing
sites and links for the intermediate database. This
means that you can perform extensive 'what if'
scenario planning to help define your IT Disaster
Recover Plans.
