Server 2016 crashed : how can I recover?


hi all,

i have done migration our sbs 2008 server 2016 standard. both vm's running on esxi 6. 2016 server holding roles (ad, dhcp, dns,...). old server running fileserver (for network drives). temporary situation until complete migration done. have 4 weeks migration. on, sbs 2008 start complaining , restarting because not hold roles.

however...

this morning restarted new server 2016 vm after windows update. got boot error : "critical process failed". refused boot, , automatic repair not help.

the windows machine apparently did not hold restore points, decided roll previous backup (veeam). make long story short : tried roll every 1 of our backups, including oldest 1 (6 days ago). backups refuse boot. apparently must have been broken more 6 days ago, not visible until restart.

so can't roll backup, , restoring dvd not work, because repair-installer says "something went wrong".

is there way recover ad-information?

can build new server , recover ad-data?

if think caused update can try removing offline.
