Add DC to existing forest

Hi Guys,

Here is the scenario am facing: 

We used to have two domain controllers for same domain, AD1 and AD2. Few months ago, AD2 was totally removed. FSMO roles were transferred to AD2. Everything is running smoothly on the network (GP, Logins, New users on AD, Exchange Services, etc...)

Now, we have a requirement to migrate AD2 a new server (AD3) running Windows 2008 R2. Here is the problem and some information:

  • AD2 functional level is Windows 2003 (highest possible level)
  • Metadata cleanup was used to remove AD1 from the sites.
  • adprep /forestprep was executed on AD2 and result was "Forest-Wide information has already been updated"
  • While running dcpromo on the new server to be AD3, we are having error that we need to run adprep /forestprep but we have executed it successfully many time.

Any ideas to be able to setup this new AD3 server?

Thank you,


Goldenberg
