Hello JFB,

It will answer user logon requests. But if the first is broken and
never comes back,maybe from a backup then you have to move the 5FSMO
roles to the running server, but only if the old one really NEVER
comes back.

Thank you Weber,
I got that cover... so if the first DC stop working, the second DC
will take
over everything?

Hello JFB,

Open Active directory site and services, go to Sites, default first
site
name, servers, choose the server, right click NTDS settings, open
properties and checkmark Global catalog (check event viewer after
it,
in
Directory service
you must find event id 1110 and 1119)

Hello JFB,

Why should it crash if you change the ip address configuration?
Or do you mean what happens for the clients? The only thing you
have to check/change is that the clients DNS configuration also
points to the second DC and that the second DC is also Global
Catalog server.

Hello JFB,

On the second DC try changing the primary/preferred DNS to the
first installed DC and set the secondary DNS to itself. Seems
you have areplication problem because the DNS points only to
itself.

Here some infos about DNS configuration if you have more then
one
