Backup on W2k3 SP1 -> Restore on W2k3 R2
Posted by Sebastian on July 12th, 2006


Hi,

I have two Domain Controllers (DC1 and DC2). I used NTBACKUP to backup
system state on DC2 (Windows Server 2003 with SP1). DC2 is OFFLINE right now.

I have a new serwer (the same hardware with Windows Server 2003 R2 !!! )
that i want to use to restore SYSTEM STATE (from DC2) on it.

What Microsoft says about it (is there any documentation ? ). Are thre any
know issues in that kind of situation?

thx for Your help.
Regards
Sebastian L

Hi,

use DCPROMO with the Media feature to promote a 2003 DC with "/ADV"

And what if DC2 is also a Certification Authority ?
