Infrastructure master

[Fredrik]

I have a child domain with three domain controllers
DC1 PDC,RID and Global Catalog
DC2 Infrastrucure master and Global catalog
DC3 Global catalog

First we had no GC on DC2. But after installed Exch2003 we needed more GC.
How about the roles - IM and GC shouldn't be on same DC? How should I move
the roles above if I want to keep three DCs?

Hej Fredrik! This depends on the infrastructure in your environment. If all
Domain Controllers contains a Global Catalog and that seems to be your case
there are no infrastructure update tasks to complete, and the 1419 message
might be ignored and you can have the IM and GCS at the same server. If you
want to read more about this see the links below, if you prefer to contact
me for a Swedish version feel free to email me at chrisand(at)chrisse.se
Replace (at) with @

Have a nice day!
