Re: Additional domain controller

Hello sakkanan,

So it is not down now? Make the second DC also Global catalog and DNS server,
for DNS use AD integrated zones. Also configure all clients to use also the
second DC as DNS server in the NIC configuration.

If your FSMO holder crashes and you can not bring it back, you have to seize
the 5 FSMO roles to the running one and have to do a metadata clenaup to
remove the crashed dc from the AD database.

Best regards
