Reality check:
Empty forest root
MYDOMAIN.LOCAL
ML-DC01
ML-DC02
Then subdomain
SUBDOMAIN.MYDOMAIN.LOCAL
SML-DC01
SML-DC02
All are currently 2K3 DC's. Ideally I think we'd like to upgrade them to W2K8
DC's and keep the same name (we have a fair amount of LDAP-y stuff that looks
at names).
What about this plan for ML-DC01?
1. Create 2008 R2 DC ML-DC03
2. Move the FSMO/DHCP roles to ML-DC03
3. DCPROMO W2K3 ML-DC01 to member status
4. Build new 2008 R2 ML-DC01 with same name and IP, Make it a DC
5. Move FSMO roles back to ML-DC01
