Is there any changes after I clone an AD server to a VM machine?

Asked by towo2002 in Microsoft Virtual Server, VMware, Active Directory

Dear all experts,

I just use VM converter to convert an AD server (This is the only AD in my network) to a virtual machine (ESXi 4.0).  After that I turn off my original AD and leave this VM as a new domain controller of my network.  However, I found that I'm unable to login as it indicates the domain controller is not available.  Finally I've to rollback the changes.  Now, I would like to know does VM converter make any changes on my AD during the conversion?  Will it assign a new SID so that my client computer recognize this is another DC?  Please kindly advise

Thanks,
