I have a specific situation. I need to upgrade a 2003 AD to 2008r2. We aren't comfortable making the jump to 2012. Basically the original
design was 5 offices each with a Domain Controller. Each Domain Controller has a file share as well as "Users" folder. I was thinking of standing up new servers side by side to start with. DCPromo the new 2008r2 servers to Domain
Controllers. What is the best method of moving the File shares and Users Folders in this instance? Once the files are moved I can then DCPromo down the 2003 Servers and elevate to 2008 Domain. All the IP Addresses are static in the entire
environment. I didn't design it this way....but having to deal with it.
