Only the first domain controller installed in a domain becomes a Global
Catalog server by default.

Ed do you know if by default when you add a 2nd DC' it the GC role is

If yes, do you know if I " make dissapear " that 2nd DC that is a GC, if
I reinstall another DC, if the GC role will reapear by magic or if my Ad
structure is " not fully functionnal " and I really my GC server
