You will also learn how to create IFM (Install from Media) data to install a domain controller without depending on a slow WAN link. You will learn how to demote a domain controller from the UI or PowerShell. Upgrading a Windows Server 2008 domain controller is likely to be a common task and you will see how to do this successfully. You will see where SRV records are kept and learn the importance of them, as well as how to automatically recreate them. Although we've discussed the global catalog, trusts, and federations previously, more detail is provided here. Finally, we'll look at some new features of Active Directory.
