Synchronize BDC Systems

Note: This feature is only available using the Provisioning Manager.

If a Backup Domain Controller (BDC) has been promoted to a PDC (Primary Domain Controller) using NT native tools, you can synchronize BDC promotions.

To synchronize BDC systems

1. Right-click the endpoint and select Custom, Synchronize BDC Promotion.

   The NT4 Synchronize with BDC promotion dialog appears.

2. If the selected machine is a BDC, that has been promoted to PDC using NT native tools, fill in the dialog and click Start.

   When the operation has run, the BDC is flagged as being the action PDC.

   Note: Once the Start button has been clicked, the action cannot be stopped.
