remove additional domain controllar
i have parent domain controller , additional 1 in same site i want try remove additional domain controller , recived masseg
" operation failed because :
the domain controller not contacted domain -my domain name- contained account computer
make computer member of workgroup , rejoin domain befor rtrying promotion "
" the specified domain either not exist or cpuld not contacted"
if, understand correctly parent domain controller means want primary domain controller & additional domain controller other domain controller in same site & want rid off demoting & repromote it.
the easiest way dcpromo /forceremoval requires additional step of metadata cleanup, since graceful demotion not working in scenario.
i request prior demoting adc, make sure transfer/seize(seize done in disaster recovery scenario & once seize fsmo role dc can put though working fine & option bring remove ad & delete ad references, followed metadata cleanup reconfigure server dc) roles fsmo,dhcp or other role prior demotion.
steps perform metadata cleanup.
