What type of experiences have you had with renaming DC names?

No we are sticking with the same names and so far we have had no issues.
I make sure all records referring to the DC are removed before renaming
the new machine and running dcpromo.

Are you going to use new netbios names for the DC's ?.

Appreciate the input, it verified what I had thought. But when I started
seeing if single domain, etc. well I had to ask. And yes refreshing =
dcpromo out and dcpromo on new HW.

Thanks

The IM is a domain FSMO role. SO the only concern is WITHIN the
domain....


No matter what forest structure you have for each domain the following
applies:


* If all DCs in a domain are GC, there is no other choice where to put
the IM. So no issue here


* If at least other DCs in a domain (besides the IM) are not a GC, then
the IM should not be on a GC





your method will work as long as the last DC, that is not a GC, being
refreshed (do you mean re-installed?) is also the IM





cheers

Let me ask if there is any issue with IM if all your DCs are GCs in your
domain, which is a child, but not all the DCs in the forest are GCs? We
have been refreshing our DCs and making all GCs but the IM is running on
the last one to refresh which is not a GC. We plan on transferring this
role to a GC while we refreshing the DC it currently resides on. It will
be a GC when finished. Should I/we rethink this? We are at function
level 2003.

Really, how so?



I 'solve' it by insisting that all DCs be GCs.

The issue with IM on GCs is solved in Windows 2003 for multi-domain
forests...
