Dear All,
I have already 2 win2003 AD server in my organistion details are as below
and so far working perfect
the first DC which i have installed is
win2003 AD acting as my primary DNS server
WSUS server
I have another server which is my second replica DC in my existing domain
which has
win2003 AD and a secondary DNS server
Now I am getting a new powerful server which I would want to be the first
DC and have the same IP address as my first DC so i dont need to change
the DNS setting in all my clients
Also move my WSUS server and data to the new machine and probably retire
the current first dc machine
Apprecite if you can help me with your advice and suggestions
really would like some examples or links as to how I could achieve this
dont have exchange running here
Thanks and Regards
Simon

| Have you configured your DNS zones to be AD-integrated, or file-based
primary and secondaries? (If you're not sure, right-click the forward
lookup zone, choose properties and look at the general tab. Or run
dnscmd /enumzones
from a command prompt on the "primary" DC.
If you have done that, then you can install the new server, dcpromo it
to be another DC, install DNS, and switch IPs with the old primary DC.
Move the FSMO roles over Ώ], make sure you configure a time source
ΐ], make sure your DNS records reflect the new DC with correct IP in
all the various places including in the _msdcs zone, and you should be
good Α]. It's not that tough, I've moved both DCs in a two-DC domain
in 2 hours doing it this way. The DC name(s) will be different, but
the IP is all the DNS clients are looking for.
Just an aside - you should strongly consider running WSUS on a
different server, and not on your DC. Perhaps you can demote your
primary DC after replacing it, and use WSUS off it. Best practices
indicate purpose-built dedicated DCs that don't have other services or
apps stacked on them.

Ώ] an easy way to transfer FSMO roles all at once is to use admod
from joeware.net. You need to get the domain SID to move the PDC
emulator role:
admod -sc xferschema
admod -sc xferrid
admod -sc xferim
admod -sc xferdm
admod -sc xferpdc:<domainsid>
Or you can follow this guide: http://www.petri.co.il/transferring_fsmo_roles.htm
ΐ] Here's a good way to ensure the PDCe is always configured, using GPO:
http://blogs.technet.com/askds/archive/2008/11/13/configuring-an-authoritative-time-server-with-group-policy-using-wmi-filtering.aspx
Or you can use
w32tm /config /manualpeerlist:peers /syncfromflags:manual /reliable:yes /update
to do it manually on the PDCe role holder.
Make sure you run:
w32tm /config /syncfromflags:domhier /update
on the old server after you move the PDCe role off it to cause it to
get time from the new PDCe. And of course, restart the time service
(net stop w32time && net start w32time)
Α] The server will re-register the new IPs in DNS if it reboots, or
by running ipconfig /registerdns

| Dear Rich,
I just did a check on the DNS on my win2003 AD server and the zone is not
AD intergrated
it shows me
Status: running
type: primary
Replication: Not an active directory intergrated zone ( this is greyed out)
I did run from the command promt dns /enumzones and it just returened me
back to the prompt.
so now is it a must to convert my current DNS setup to AD-integrated and
how could I do it
---
could I click on the change tab adjacent to type: and check the option
which is right now unchecked-- store the zone in Active directory- or
anymore things needs to be done
Thanks and regards

| Yes, you can change it to AD-Integrated, the check box will do the
work for you. This way, when you install the new server with DNS and
promote it to be a domain controller, it will get a copy of the DNS
zones that are in AD automatically. I haven't actually done this
before (I always use AD integrated to start with) so I'm not sure what
the other DC's DNS will show (it may not even have DNS installed, but
it should... set AD integrated and then install DNS on the second DC,
it will bring in the forward and reverse zones from the first DC).
Using primary and secondary zone files is not that big of a hassle
with only two DCs, but when you have many, it certainly can be. AD
integrated DNS takes care of a lot of the details for you
automatically.

| Hi ,
Just want to clarify here,
If we run our domain with AD integrated zone, we dont have to worry about
the DNS Mappings. and No settings needs to be done on DNS.
Once we build a new server and promote as DC,it'll automatically take care
of DNS Queries. Once we moved the roles, we can go ahead and decommission
the Old DC.
Is that correct?

| You still need to worry about the DNS server systems have been told to use,
AD Integrated won't fix that.
Other things that don't replicate:
Zone Transfer Settings
Automatic Scavenging Settings (not to be confused with Aging settings) and
any other server-level setting
