dc role transfer

About this tag
The dc role transfer tag covers the process of moving Active Directory Flexible Single Master Operation (FSMO) roles between domain controllers in a Windows Server environment. Content under this tag includes troubleshooting scenarios where role transfer commands like Move-ADDirectoryServerOperationMasterRole and netdom query fsmo are used, and issues that arise when the original domain controller is disconnected. Common themes include role migration between different Windows Server versions, such as from 2012R2 to 2019, and ensuring domain functionality after transfer. The tag is relevant for IT administrators managing Active Directory infrastructure and planning or executing role transfers.
