I goof on this one. I have server svr.local.domain.com which was the DC and Brought in a new server. Did a dcpromo and join the two together noproblems. the new server is svr1.local.domain.com. Then made svr1 the master and everything is great. Here is the bummer some how I lost the registery on svr1 and did not have a backup.
The drives are mirror and cannot get the computer backup.
I set the drive aside using another set of drives and reload the machine.I would like to make the svr a master again. what is the easist way. so then I could join svr1 again and make it the master with out losing the active directory.I tried coping the old sysvol folder but a course that did not work.
 
is SVR still a DC? If so then you should just need to Seize the FSMO Roles.

I hope you find this post helpful. Please let me know if it was.

Regards,

Mark
