Hi,

 

A client has two AD servers on Win2012 R2. We added a third one on Win2022 and upgraded the Win2022 to be the master. So far, so good.

 

We shut down both old AD servers to see what works and what does not. There were some issues with fixed IPs on clients (unrelated to AD role), so we decided to use the IPs on the two AD servers on the third one.

 

But at some point, we need to decommission the old AD server. Since the original IPs are in use, we think of assigning new IPs and then decommissioning them. Do you think this will be a problem? I think only when the AD servers communicate together through IPs and not DNS names.

 

Has anybody ever faced this scenario?

 

Thanks!
