Authoriative Restore of Active directory using Backup Exec 2010

Hello,

I have two Domain controllers in a test environment, Windows 2003 server SP 2, 32 bit.

I have backed up the system state of DC1 and DC2 respectively.

Now I want to perform an authoritative restore of DC1 (restore all AD to a previous state).

I am not certain of the steps required to do so.

I have rebooted DC1 in DSRM mode and resored with the following options:

General Tab:

Restore Security
Preserve tree

Advanced tab:

Mark this server as the primary arbitrator for replication when restoring folders managed by File replication service or when restoring Sysvol in System State

Since I am restoring the complete system state, are the steps listed above the correct ones for Authoritatuve restore of AD to DC1?

Thanks,

Mark
Could someone help guide me?
