@dbeato said in Using DFSRMIG to move to from FRS to DFSR for Sysvol:

@texkonc Seize the FSMo Roles (If any) from the old AD DCs and then as @JaredBusch cleanup AD.

Roles were cleanly moved before shutdown. No seizing necessary.

I guess my biggest concern is what is going to happen to AD when we power up the old servers to demote them and drop them from the domain? It wont use the old Data from those DC's right? Since the roles are on one of the new servers, it is the authoritative one and says replicate from me right?

Created a bogus GPO

saw it add on all the sysvol folders.
had to refresh for it to show on the other server.
No permission mis match error.
Deleted GPO.
Gone from all.
So we can say that Sysvol is happy on all 3 servers.
Now here is to hoping the backup pause errors go away.
@dbeato

Got those DFS-R patches listed above installed.
Logged into the server that was complaining \servername\sysvol\domain.com\policies
Added an empty txt file.
UNC to the other DC's same sysvols, its there on both.
Deleted it from one of the newer DC's and the delete was gone across the board.
Next set of backups start in 15 min, so I will check on it in an hour.

Finished moving our #1 customer that has still been with us since the beginning 15+ years ago to Office 365 last night. Success, only some minor kinks. Checked this morning still looking good things still flowing.

Gotta get ready for the SpiceCorps tonight pretty soon.

Wont make it, I am on call.

Just powered off two DC's that had roles removed from it, leaving it down for a week before they are demoted.

Just fixed a bunch of servers offline with host being off and other servers not getting dns with the help of our friend idrac! Root cause I'll look Monday, rolling back into bed.

Just called it a day for work. My onsite took a helluva lot longer than hoped. Got caught up enough to deal with the rest Monday.
