In addition to what Jorge and Harj have suggested
you can just go into AD Sites and Services and look
at each DCs "NTDS properties" (if there are not too
many.)

The MMC is easy, and if you have a single domain
forest (or small forest) you might just wish to check
all those GC boxes and make every DC a GC while
you are at it.
