Guest DanC Posted October 1, 2008 Posted October 1, 2008 If it is possible to prepare a W2k3 DC to ad a W2k8 membre server, is it posible to make the W2k8 to take all the rules over so the W2k3 DC can be removed?
Guest Meinolf Weber Posted October 1, 2008 Posted October 1, 2008 Re: migration to a 2008 DC from 2003 DC posible? Hello DanC, Yes, start here: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc731188.aspx http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc755199.aspx In short: -run adprep command from the 2008 disk against the 2003 schema master -make sure you run AD integrated zones in the 2003 DNS server -add 2008 as member server with preferred DNS only the 2003 DC/DNS on the NIC -run dcpromo -install DNS afterwards and wait for replication of zones, at least 15 minutes -move the 5 FSMO roles -make the 2008 Global catalog server -reconfigure the clients to use the new DNS server -run dcdiag /v and repadmin /showrepl to check for errors -disconnect the old DC from the network and check if still everything works -if yes, then reconnect the old DC and run dcpromo to delete it correctly form AD -delete the server from AD sites and services -check that DNS is cleaned up from the old servername on all tabs Best regards Meinolf Weber Disclaimer: This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights. ** Please do NOT email, only reply to Newsgroups ** HELP us help YOU!!! http://www.blakjak.demon.co.uk/mul_crss.htm > If it is possible to prepare a W2k3 DC to ad a W2k8 membre server, is > it posible to make the W2k8 to take all the rules over so the W2k3 DC > can be removed? >
