I have a new DC that is installed at one site with a IP address of a Site subnet. I want that DC to manage another Site subnet in a different city temporarily. Are there any issues just moving the DC to that site in &quot;sites and services&quot; without changing the IP? If so should I manually add a KCC connection or have AD auto generate it?
