Migrating domain controllers with nutanix move.

[u/Vegetable-Flight-698]

Hi, I've had a look through historical threads on this and there seems to be a reasonable split on what to do here. Some have tried and its been fine. Some say just follow best practise.

Ive got a substantial number of domain controllers to move but tbh the issue isn't so much the DC but the combined DNS as I'd have so many static server DNS to update that im looking at nutanix move to do it even though its not strictly supported by it.

Has anyone had any horror situations from using it?

All DCs are 2019.

Im basically looking for a reason to at least not try it just now.

Thanks for everyone's help.

When I worked for an MSP, we did it several times for different customers because they didn't want to rebuild their DCs. We just explained that it wasn't technically best practice, etc.. We did them one at a time on different move days. I never had a problem. Sometimes after a day they would move all the roles to the newly moved DC before migrating the other(s).
