On a slightly different but related front, I have upgraded Server 2012 to 2012 R2 in-place a few times and that’s a total non-issue. I didn’t do that to any DC’s though…

But I am going for it, the boxes are pretty fresh with rock solid hardware. I have no nagging event log issues or issues with the DC’s. I have a 2012 DC on a VM in the same room if it goes bad. They only do DC stuff no other crazy apps on them. My domain is very flat and simple…..it’s summer time there are only 75 people tops working and they are all cool if it gets annoying. Anyone done it this way, how did it go? No, not doing it today, don’t want to mess up the holiday weekend.
