Replication between domain controllers

Guest

Hi,

We have a total of 6 child domain controllers (DCs) in our child domain (5 of them are Global Catalog). My question is the following: 2 DCs (say, DC2 and DC4) are going to be demoted very soon and 2 other DCs (say, DC5 and DC6) depend on these 2 DCs to replicate with the remaining 2 DCs (i.e DC1 and DC3). Will the KCC automatically create new replication "partners" (objects) for DC5 and DC6 to maintain proper intra-site replication or are we going to encounter replication problems between DCs after the demotion of DC2 and DC4?

Thanks :)

KCC should take care of our replication topology, how ever you can always go
in to sites and services snapin and look if it has done so

Hi,

Thanks for the quick reply! Can I simulate the whole think by shutting DOWN (temporarily) the 2 DCs which are going to be demoted and hence confirm that KCC will effectively work?

Thanks again

No. You have to demote Active Directory from threes servers
