samba - Dec 2016 - Additional DC (backup domain controller)

Hi all

I want to add another DC for high availability. Samba dc is running on
centos7 samba version is 4.5.1.

Currently I'm managing to samba dc with rsat.
Just want if the domain controller fails than another dc is still running
with the same dc information (especially users, GPO, dns)

Can someone please guide me how to do that?

Hi Rowland

 

I saw this pages before and did it already but it wasn’t worked for me but now
It works like a charm somehow. Now I’ve two DCs

 

[root at centdc01 ~]# host -t A metin.net localhost

Using domain server:

Name: localhost

Address: 127.0.0.1#53

Aliases: 

 

metin.net has address 192.168.0.12

metin.net has address 192.168.0.13

 

Sorry to have bothered you guys

 

Thx
