I have been tasked with Migrating a DNS Server.
- Two separate servers
- There is no Active Directory
- Actual Migration -- not just creating secondary zones
For the sake of example let's name the servers:
SERVER1
- Windows Server 2003
- 10.10.10.1
- Migrating from
SERVER2
- Windows Server 2008
- 10.10.10.2
- Migrating To
I followed various tutorials including:
Steps Taken
- Set up DNS on 10.10.10.2
- Created new secondary zones on 10.10.10.2 to reflect primary zones from 10.10.10.1
- Allow zone transfers from 10.10.10.1 to 10.10.10.2
- Transfer records from 10.10.10.1 to 10.10.10.2
- Switch zones on 10.10.10.2 from secondary to primary
I do not want to shut down / remove SERVER1 until I know this is done right.
PROBLEM
Okay, so all the records are there and all is well...
HOWEVER!!! Some of the data sections (SOA, NS) in the new records of SERVER2 start with the text 'serverone'
EXAMPLE of SERVER2 Records
........... NAME ................................ TYPE ...................................... DATA
(same as parent folder) ........... Start of Authority ............. serverone.redbluegreen....
Why does it still say serverone? Server1 is going to be shut down and removed as a DNS server. So am I correct in assuming that is incorrect and needs to be fixed?
