Conversion of Domain Controller from Evalualtion version to licensed

$

I have a domain controller running on 2016 Datacenter Evaluation version and the license is left only for few days now.

I want to make it licensed since the DC is critical  (Production DC in a multi - domain environment)

I have searched some forums and found the command ""DISM /online /Set-Edition:ServerEdition /ProductKey:XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX /AcceptEula" to make it licensed. However it says conversion is not possible on domain controllers.

My question here is, if I run the command, will it throw any error message and abort or  will it corrupt the AD Database?

What will be the impact? I don't want to test by running the command since it is in production.

Also any other solution to this problem would highly appreciated.
