AD DS has several new installation options in Windows Server 2008, including
the following:
■ RODC
■ DNS
■ Global Catalog (GC) servers
New OS installation options include Full Install and Core Server Install.
The first thing you must do when adding a Windows Server 2008 DC to
a Windows 2003 forest is to prepare the forest for the Windows 2008 server by
extending the schema to accommodate the new server:
■ To prepare the forest for Windows Server 2008 run the following command:
adprep /forestprep.
■ To prepare the domain for Windows Server 2008 run the following command:
adprep /domainprep.
It is recommended that you host the primary domain controller (PDC) emulator
operations master role in the forest root domain on a DC that runs Windows Server
2008 and to make this server a GC server. The first Windows Server 2008 DC in the
forest cannot be an RODC. Before installing the first RODC in the forest, run the
following command: adprep /rodcprep.
Making sure the installation was successful; you can verify the AD DS installation
by checking the following:
■ Check the Directory Service log in Event Viewer for errors.
■ Make sure the SYSVOL folder is accessible to clients.
■ Verify DNS functionality.
■ Verify replication.
To run adprep /forestprep you have to be a member of the Enterprise Admins and
Schema Admins groups of Active Directory. You must run this command from the
DC in the forest that has the Schema Master FSMO role. Only one Schema Master
is needed per forest.
To run adprep /domainprep you have to be a member of the Domain Admins
or Enterprise Admins group of Active Directory. You must run this command
from each Infrastructure Master FSMO role in each domain after you have run
adprep /forestprep in the forest. Only one Infrastructure Master is needed per
domain.
To run adprep /rodcprep you have to be a member of the Enterprise Admins
group of Active Directory. You can run this command on any DC in the forest.
However, it is recommended that you run this command on the Schema Master.
