Hi Experts, <br />
<br />
I want to undo an SRV record modification that i did but when i try to modify the record i get the error message &quot;the record cannot be updated, the record already exist&quot; so it seems like once i modified the original SRV to it's new value it create a default valued srv record to replace the one i modified. Is this correct? can i just delete the modified version as there is a default one already there....<br />
<br />
background<br />
I did this as per VMware best pratice to slowly decomission a physical DNS Server, this was done by making the DNS Weight value 25 and the DNS Priority value 200 on the SRV record of the system de decommission.<br />

The Domain Name System (DNS) is a hierarchical, globally distributed system responsible for associating the name of a computer, service or other resource into an IP address for connecting to the Internet or a private network. Most prominently, it translates domain names to the numerical IP addresses needed for the purpose of computer services and devices worldwide.

Windows Server 2003 was based on Windows XP and was released in four editions: Web, Standard, Enterprise and Datacenter. It also had derivative versions for clusters, storage and Microsoft’s Small Business Server.
