Hi,
I have Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprises Server and its currently running in our company as a master ADDS server. Now I need to upgrade my master DC to Windows 2012. I have the administrator privilege & can preform backup process. First of all I need to backup my master DC and need to restore it to another hardware or Virtual Machine. ( so it will not affect anything if something goes wrong ).
Then I need to upgrade the my cloned server to Windows Server 2012.
Now here are the questions.
01). How to backup my ADDS ( Windows Server 2008 R2 Server )
02). How to restore that backup I mentioned in 01) question ?
Thanks !
