Migrating windows 2008 domain controller to 2016 Domain Controller
Hi, I am planning to migrate windows 2008 domain controller to windows 2016 Domain Controller. May I know the steps migrate ? Before migrating to 2016 DC do I have to migrate FRS to DFSR ? ...
HiVishwa10
Please advise if you would like to do a clean-install on a different server or migrate on the same server (In-place Upgrade)?
Firstly, when replacing / Migrating a DC, I would always like to make the new DC have the same IP as the old DC. It simplifies many things, like DHCP scopes, DHCP relays, and devices with static IP. You can give the old DC a new IP and then give the new DC the original IP address.
Thank you,
Dav,
During FRS-DFSR Migration @ Prepared state when I run Propagation test.I get below error.
"Replication group Domain System Volume,replicated folder SYSVOL Share on member ABCD.EFG.COM
A new propagation test file cannot be created.Cannot open propagation test folder under replicated folder.The network name cannot be found"
My DNS is not running on windows.
Thank you
Please run;
- Dcdiag /v /c /d /e /s:%computername% >c:\dcdiag.log
- repadmin /showrepl >C:\repl.txt
- ipconfig /all > C:\dc1.txt
- ipconfig /all > C:\dc2.txt
then put text files up on OneDrive and share a link.
