My firm currently has two offices. We have a very simple setup - at the head office is the primary Windows Server 2003 R2 domain controller and at the other office is a secondary Windows Server 2003 R2 domain controller.
The second office is being sold off as it's own company so the network needs to be split and email etc hosted elsewhere.
In preparation for this, is it possible to, for lack of a better description, migratethe secondary DC so that it is the primary DC of its own domain and transfer all users and permissions etc to the new domain.
Once that's done is it possible, via trusts, to allow the current level of access to continue until the go-live date of the new company?
Does the AD Migration Tool support this scenario?
Hopefully that makes sense...
Many thanks.
