You said, "From what you posted earlier, the domain already points to the new DC, you just need to get the DNS fsmo roles." how so? The fsmo show, shows PDC, which is the old DC. DC01 is the new one. Or am I missing something else? As far as keeping it online I will just move everything I can and then seize and shut it down. I can turn off the networking to it since it is a VM and still see some things. Won't the new DC's(DC01,DC02) still have replication information about PDC though? the seize command wouldn't adjust that?
