Change the Zone Replication Scope

  • Artigo

Applies To: Windows Server 2008

You can use the following procedure to change the replication scope for a zone. Only Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS)–integrated primary and stub forward lookup zones can change their replication scope. Secondary forward lookup zones cannot change their replication scope.

Membership in Administrators, or equivalent, is the minimum required to complete this procedure. Review details about using the appropriate accounts and group memberships at Local and Domain Default Groups (https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=83477).
