Directory Services Restore Mode

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Directory Services Restore Mode (DSRM) is used on a Microsoft Windows Domain Controller to take the Active Directory on that machine offline. DSRM mode can be accessed by pressing the F8 key during the startup sequence of a Windows 2000 or Windows Server 2003 system running Active Directory. In Windows 2000, the DSRM password is typically created as a null value (blank), which is also the Recovery Console password. In Windows Server 2003, a DSRM password must be defined when DCPromo is run.
