We plan on DCPROMO'ing two 2008 DC's, we have done all required steps to point LDAP and DNS to other servers. But before we fully take out the DC's we plan on turning off LDAp only by running the following command on the DC's.
net stop ntds
With this turned off we hope that there is no issues but if there is we can properly address it in a timely manner. My question is.... WHat other ways or concerns should I consider?
Remember our goal is to turn off LDAP on our 2008 DC's to see/ confirm communication will not be stopped and LDAP/ AD services will not be affected due to everyone else going to the other DC's.
