But if all else fails, you could programmatically populate sIDHistory after the migration on your own. So long as the population takes place under the context of a domain admin you could do this later. MSDN documents an API DsAddSidHistory which can do this for you. You didn't note the tool you

If you really want to keep the info on your HDs, remove the HDs from the system before you send it back. Otherwise, why not reformat/fdisk/clear array configs? If they're going to ship you another server, you're going to have hardware/registry inconsistencies like MAC address. Personally, I

I typically don't look at the non-security event logs unless there is a problem. I do periodically scan the security event logs to check for problems there. I used to try and proactively monitor the event logs, but, as you've found, trying to separate the wheat from the chaff is an impossible

There aremany reasons why you'd want to make them all AD-integrated. One is the fact that you have 22 branch offices. Remember that in the Primary/Secondary configuration, changes are made ONLY on the Primary server. Since youare allowed onlyone primary, think about what will be happening at
