This was my thought as well. I'd agree with others that it's not worth the risk using these cloning apps with DCs. The work to do the dcpromo down/up is trivial. If replication traffic is an issue cook off IFM media from the current DC and them promote from media on the new box.

Since no one else has ventured an opinion I will, hesitantly, offer mine. My thoughts are that you may have had an issue similar to what is discussed here when a DC is restored from backups, and had a USN rollback. http://blogs.dirteam.com/blogs/jorge/archive/2006/03/08/597.aspx Again, only my opinion based on the info presented. - WJR On Thu, Sep 30, 2010 at 22:52, Christopher Bodnar <christopher_bod...@glic.com<mailto:christopher_bod...@glic.com>> wrote: W2K3 FFL: I did a P2P migration tonight with PlateSpin on (2) domain controllers. One of them holds the RID and Infrastructure FSMO roles (SERVER1), and the other held the Schema role(SERVER2). Everything looked good until the end when I started looking at replication. SERVER1 wasn't replicating. Initially I thought it was an issue with both of them being down at the same time, and I waited till SERVER2 was back online, but SERVER1 still wouldn't replicate. Finally ran DCDIAG and found that both Inbound and Outbound replication were disabled on SERVER1. Enabled them both and all was well. Any thoughts as to how this got disabled in the process? I've done a number of PlateSpin migrations and never ran into this. Although I can't say I've done it on a FSMO role holder, or at least one that had these 2 specific roles. Any thoughts?
