It's a DC at a branch office which is part of the same domain as the main office. Does that make a difference?

I have an old image I can restore that is just over a year old. I have last night's backup, but to my chagrin it doesn't include a system state backup. What would be my best course of action - can I just restore the image and let it get itself back up to date, should I demote it then promote it back to a DC, or are there any other problems I might have or steps I should take? Thanks for any tips. (And yes, I need to get by backup act together) Ralph Smith Confidentiality Notice: ****************** This communication, including any attachments, may contain confidential information and is intended only for the individual or entity to whom it is addressed.
