I know Microsoft says R2 cannot be removed once installed.
But exactly what exactly is R2? Does it only extend AD or is it more than that?
I have a domain controller that's on R2, and I need to remove it since R2 is not allowed on the network. In the same domain, I have 2 other DCs that are Windows 2003, but no R2 installed. I was thinking, what if I demote the R2 DC; would this effectively remove R2?
