We currently have a Windows 2008 R2 domain with two sites: Default-First-Site-Name and the Willow-Hill.
We have four domain controllers at the Default-First-Site-Name: Filesrvr05 (Windows 2008 R2); DM-HQ01 (Windows 2008 R2), W3DV-DC01 (Windows 2012 R2); W3DV-DC02 (Windows 2012 R2). Willow-Hills: WHSP-DC01 (Windows 2008 R2).
We would like to get rid of and demote the DM-HQ01, how does it affects the NTDS setting with the replication among the remaining domain controllers?
Will all the replication connectin be adjusted automatically?
The current NTDS setting connections for a given domain controller are shown as automatically generated.
Here are the current replication settings:
DM-HQ01: Replicate From: Filesrvr05; W3DV-DC02, Replicate From: Filesrvr05; W3DV-DC02; WHSP-DC01
Filesrvr05: Replicate From: DM-HQ01; W3DV-DC01, Replicate From: DM-HQ01; W3DV-DC01
W3DV-DC01: Replicate From: Filesrvr05; W3DV-DC02, Replicate From: Filesrvr05, W3DV-DC02
W3DV-DC02: Replicate From: DM-HQ01; W3DV-DC01; WHSP-DC01, Replicate From: DM-HQ01; W3DV-DC01
WHSP-DC01: Replicate DM-HQ01; Replicate from: W3DV-DC02
Thanks for your help!
