Background: The company's existing domain control server, whether hardware or software are very backward, has gradually failed to meet the demand. The goal is to replace the existing Server 2003 domain control with a more powerful server within one of the server R2 virtual machines as a new domain control.
1. Open the ad Domain and trust relationship on Server 2003, prompting the domain and forest to have a functional level of 2003, respectively.

2, copy the Server 2008 disc image in the Support/adprep directory to 2003, respectively, run: adprep32/forestprep,
adprep32 /DomainPrep, adprep32/domainprep /gpprep, adprep32/rodcprep spread architecture. (Adprep is 64-bit and cannot be run on 32-bit Server 2003 so use Adprep32.exe)
