| They will be able to coexist with no
problems, assuming you take all of the appropriate steps before you upgrade.
You will need to run adprep to prepare the forest and domain for the 2003
schema. Run adprep /forestprep on the schema master, and adprep /domainprep on
the infrastructure master. If you haven™t moved these roles, they will
be installed on the first domain controller that was put into place.

Subject: [ActiveDir] 2003 domain
& 2000,
We have 5 domain controllers all 2000, one forest, now we want to add
one more domain controller, and the sever is 2003, if we add 2003 domain
controller is there going to be any issues with the 2000? compatibility issues,
replicaiton issues, errors that will show? any thing I should be worried about
when the 2 domain controllers (2000 and 2003) coexist?
thank you | | | |

| As far as I know 2K and 2K3 DCs can
coexist together just fine, but what is the reason for another adding the new
DC?
Are you trying to migrate to AD 2K3 and
move your 2K DCs to 2K3 later?

| Hey Kevin, I dunno if you™re already
aware of this or if it even applies in your environment¦but if you have
more than one site then the new DC will automatically become the ISTG of the
site you put it into. Whenever a 2003 DC is added to a site, it will
assume ISTG ownership if there are no other 2003 DC™s in that site.
Might not even matter for your situation, but the following is a really good
read anyway to understand all the cool replication stuff.
Here™s a snippet from the following
URL:
http://technet2.microsoft.com/WindowsServer/en/library/c238f32b-4400-4a0c-b4fb-7b0febecfc731033.mspx?mfr=true
ISTG Role Ownership and Viability
The owner of the ISTG role is communicated through normal
Active Directory replication. Initially, the first domain controller in the
site is the ISTG role owner. It communicates its role ownership to other domain
controllers in the site by writing the distinguished name of its child NTDS
Settings object to the interSiteTopologyGenerator attribute of the NTDS Site
Settings object for the site. As a change to the configuration directory
partition, this value is replicated to all domain controllers in the forest.
The ISTG role owner is selected automatically. The role
ownership does not change unless:
¢ The current ISTG role owner becomes unavailable.
¢ All domain controllers in the site are running
Windows 2000 and one of them is upgraded to Windows Server 2003.
If at least one domain controller in a site is running
Windows Server 2003, the ISTG role is assumed by a domain controller that is
running Windows Server 2003.Robert Williams
Have a great day!
