Raising Funtionality version of SBS2003 Domain and Forest from 2000 to 2003
Hello, Ok Scenario
SBS2003 in production, a Server 2012 Standard has been added to the Domain, nothing else so far has been done.
I want to Raise the Functionality of the Forest and Domain before promoting the 2012 Server as Domain Server, as I believe this has to be done before the 'promotion'.
Question: will the Raising of the Functionality on the SBS2003 screw up the Current domain/forest setup.
I want to ensure that when I raise the functionality that everything will still be working prior to the promotion of the 2012....
Can anyone help on that? thanks.

The above answers, while not totally assuring me of what I was lookign for , still gave the information that upping the functionality on the SBS itself and that the 2012 server is simply an added server and nothing higher, as yet, wouldn't affect the setups in the domain.
Have done the change and awaiting any issues from the users.. ( it's a remote site)
