Hi,
Yes I've got lot of question loooooooool
Microsoft certified users tell me it's not possible to clone a DC 2008..... I've got to resintall a clean 2008 and proceed with FSMo transfert : the best , we're OK BUT
Reality can be different so, I would like to know if somebody did it :
-> 1 physical 2003 Server (got 5 roles)
-> 1 virtualbox 2008 Server (another "secondary" (yes I know it's not really secondary) DC)
-> I would like to clone offline my vbox 2008 to Proxmox.
-> NEVER restart the vbox 2008.
-> start the new 2008 clone.
Windows don't care if it's on paris or NY, on virtual A or Virtual B server so, I would like to know if my AD won't be corrupted.
Actually, I've made some test.....offline for sure and my clone (made offline with clonezilla) is OK.
But apparently, I can't set it ONLINE because the original is always on and some modifications were made on AD (password, users desactivated).
Any other advices ?
Thanks
