What are the steps to move the DC in production site after promotion?

Moving a domain controller (DC) to a production site after promotion involves several steps. Here’s a general overview of the process:

  1. Determine the site topology: Before moving the DC to a production site, it’s important to understand the site topology of the Active Directory Forest and the location of the existing domain controllers.
  2. Select the target site: Determine the target site for the new DC based on the site topology and the location of the users and resources that the DC will be serving.
  3. Install the DC role: Install the DC role on the new server that will be moved to the production site.
  4. Configure network settings: Configure the network settings on the new DC to ensure that it can communicate with the other domain controllers in the forest.
  5. Join the domain: Join the new DC to the Active Directory domain.
  6. Promote the DC: Promote the new server to a domain controller using the “DCPromo” tool.
  7. Configure DNS: Configure the DNS settings on the new DC to ensure that it can resolve domain names and that other domain controllers can resolve its name.
  8. Configure replication: Configure replication between the new DC and the other domain controllers in the forest.
  9. Move the DC to the target site: Physically move the new DC to the target site and connect it to the network.
  10. Verify operation: Verify that the new DC is functioning correctly, and that it is replicating data with the other domain controllers in the forest.

It’s important to note that the exact steps involved in moving a DC to a production site may vary depending on the specific environment and configuration. Additionally, it’s important to thoroughly test and validate the new DC before putting it into production to ensure that it is operating correctly and reliably.
