next steps to make primary DC after promoting DC
I have just promoted my new 2012 server to a domain controller and made it a DNS server. I want to eventually retire the old 2003 server which is currently primary. How do I change this role to be the 2012 server. In the event that the I shutdown the 2003 box I want all AD services and DNS services to run from the 2012 box.

When I try to change the operations master on the 2012 server I get this message
How do I connect?
How do I connect?
Yes, those are the roles.
The error message is self explanatory - it's already on the server you're trying to move it to.

When transferring Infrastruture I get the following error message. Is this a concern?
It's only a concern if you have multiple domains. In single domain environments, this is fine.
