Moving DCs among sites

D

Dinendra

Hi,

Before moving a root servers(DC) in a Forest, to a
different Site/Subnet in the same forest, do i need to
transfer the FSMO roles in the root server(DC) to a
additional DC in the target Site/Subnet?
Or can i move it without transfering the FSMO roles?

Please advice

You do not need to transfer the FSMO roles. You do need to make sure that
you verify that the SRV records and host records for the DC have been
updated in DNS. You also need to verify that the change has replicated to
the other DNS server or you may end up with AD replication problems.
