RE: add a windows 2008 server

 

Dear Customer,

 

Thank you for posting in newsgroup. And thanks to Meinolf for the

contribution.

 

According to the description, my understanding is that you want to add a

Windows Server 2008 based computer as an additional DC in the current

domain and you want documentation for the modifications of that. If I have

any misunderstanding, please feel free to let me know.

 

Based on the experience, here is some information which may be helpful for

you.

 

Analysis and Suggestions:

=======================

 

If you are installing an additional Windows Server 2008 domain controller

in a Windows Server 2008 forest, you do not have to prepare the forest

before you begin the installation. However, as you are installing the first

Windows Server 2008 domain controller in an existing Windows 2000 Server

domain, ensure that the following tasks are completed:

 

1. Prepare the forest by running "adprep /forestprep" on the server that

holds the schema master operations master role (also known as flexible

single master operations or FSMO) to update the schema.

 

2. Prepare the domain by running "adprep /domainprep /gpprep" on the server

that holds the infrastructure operations master role.

 

3. If you are installing an RODC in an existing Windows Server 2003 domain,

you must also run the "adprep /rodcprep" command.

 

Please note: the "Adprep" utility is in the location "X:\sources\adprep" of

the Windows Server 2008 installation disc.

 

For more information, please refer to the following link:

 

Installing an Additional Windows Server 2008 Domain Controller

http://technet2.microsoft.com/windowsserver2008/en/library/6c141f6a-6c7b-462

f-b2a8-a06c543022981033.mspx

 

You may verify the Active Directory Schema level by using the

"Adsiedit.exe" or the "AD Explorer" to view the "ObjectVersion" attribute

in the properties of the "CN=Schema, CN=Configuration, DC= <domain>

partition" on the domain controller. The "ObjectVersion" value should be 31

in this case.

 

The Schema Version "ObjectVersion" values and corresponding operating

system support level:

 

13=Microsoft Windows 2000

30=Original release version of Microsoft Windows Server 2003 and Microsoft

Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 1

31=Microsoft Windows Server 2003 R2

44=Microsoft Windows Server 2008

 

Please note: we need to install the support tools from the installation

Disk before we can use Adsiedit.exe.

 

For the information about AD Explorer, you may refer to:

 

Download: Active Directory Explorer v1.01

Re: add a windows 2008 server

 

ok i read all the articles an some other, i just need few confirmations to

be sure :

 

If my new server is only a TSE 2008:

1) i'm not oblige to make the extension of the schema or something else (i

will do it after)

2) i can't have the TS licensing server on my 2003 DC, but it can be on my

tse (that i dislike, but i will move it before adding a DC2008 next year...)

 

 

thanks for the answers

 

nicolas
