Re: Transferring FSMO



My only reason for wanting to move it is it's on an older server and even
with Raid 5, if there was ever a bad crash, I would prefer not to seize the
roles. I assume if the roles are transfered to another DC, there are no
issues with leaving the orginal one online and not demoting it.
