What is the step by step to upgrade the following too windows server 2012 R2 std?
* Four physical servers, all windows server 2008 r2 std 64x
* One of the DC's has all the fsmo roles and is currently the ntp server
* We would like to vitualize to vmware like a p2v but understand the limitations on domain controllers in a virtual environment: http://www.vmware.com/files/pdf/Virtualizing_Windows_Active_Directory.pdf
* So If we were to do an inplace upgrade how please provide step by step
* And if we decide to introduce new equipment and DC's need a step by step
Thank you,
