Hi, there.
Here is the question:
- A customer asked about using a server cluster:
The environment uses a stand-alone Windows 2012 Server, which moves Active Directory, DNS Services and file storage.
Can we build a cluster adding to this one another Windows 2012 Server?
It seems that OS does not support adding DC as a node in a cluster, but the building guides doesn't tell anything about this.
I've tried to do, and during previous check a message appeared:
--------
Validate the configuration of Active Directory
Description: it Validates that all nodes have the same domain role domain and organizational unit.
Validating that all nodes have the same domain role domain and organizational unit.
Role Domain FQDN domain name site Organizational Unit
EVM-MAD-SVR1.ev-mad.local ev-mad.local Unknown error.Default-First-Site-Name OU = Domain Controllers
EVM-MAD-SVR2.ev-ev-mad.local mad.local Primary Domain Controller Default-First-Site-Name OU = Domain Controllers
Could not determine the role of some domain servers.
It could not be determined if the EVM-MAD-SVR1.ev-mad.local node is a domain controller read
only because of this error: Object does not exist.
-------
I need arguments to justify an answer to my customer, or
a guide to solve this issue.
