rlgiordano Posted July 6, 2011 Posted July 6, 2011 Hi Everyone, I am new to this forum and need help with the following. I would like to take are curren domaiin (server 2008 standard 32bit) and migrate to a new server box with server 2008 r2. Keeping the same domain name and computer name if possible. I than want to take the old server and turn it into a backup domain. Can someone give me a breakdown on the steps I need to do to perform this task. Thank You! Bob Giordano Quote
ICTCity Posted July 7, 2011 Posted July 7, 2011 Hi, You could do that but is not a great idea (too much work). Why not simply create a new DC in the same domain with Global Catalog configured? Once done, you can use netdom to rename the old domain controller. Is not a good idea to change the name of a DC with the name of an old one.
