FSMO Roles be transferred during DC reboot?


2 q's:

can fsmo roles transferred dc when dc holding roles down/in process of reboot?

a new dc going old dc's hostname/ip address, need renew/release dhcp?

hi,

fsmo roles not depend on reboots , these transferred between source , destination dcs, if these both online , healthy. if source fsmo role holder offline or in reboot can't transfer role can size if know never online again.

ip address of dc can changed, need make sure dns record update reflect new ip , these being replicated across ad. netlogon restart after change might speed this.

if have old ip address configured in dhcp options have updated well, clients new settings automatically @ next talk dhcp server.

hope helps.

regards,

calin
