Problem in Moving FSMO Roles

[Gautam]

Hi All,
We are running windows 2000 with SP4 and have two locations. The Schema
Master,RID,PDC And Domain Master is running on one server and Infrastructure
Master is running on the other server on Site A.

We have a Domain Controller at Site B which is working as GC. What we want
is to move the Schema Master, RID,PDC to the server in Site B. Please advice
how can we do and what are the Implications on moving it.

Regards,

It is pretty simple. If you only have a single domain in a forest then
there isn't a lot of worry other than fault tolerance (All your eggs in one
basket so to speak).

Follow the link below and you should be just fine.

I note that you are following the advice of placing the IM on a separate
non-GC DC. To build on what Paul said, in a single domain forest, or a
multi-domain forest whereby all DCs in this domain are GCs the IM is not
used and the conflict is moot.
