Hi all Nutanix experts, we're scheduled to migrate our infrastructure from VMware to Nutanix in two weeks. We're going to set up two Nutanix clusters (Production and DR) with full replication.

We use a virtual Windows Server 2022 as our current domain controller. We also have a backup domain controller (virtual server). According to some of the Nutanix documentation, migrating the domain controller using Move could cause issues. Has any of you had a similar situation? If I don't want to set up a domain controller on a physical server, what's the solution for this issue?

hi,

I have done in my test environment and it worked smoothly.

Please note that in production you should not take risk, follow the guide line and create a VM in Nutanix and do DC sync and then you can decommission old DC’s on your VMware environment.

 


I've done it als well without any issues. But official documentation state you need to create a new one and use the fsmo tranfer method. It is you own choice ;)
