| Make sure that the second DC is made a Global Catalogue and also runs any
networking services that the first one used to have such as DNS, DHCP etc.
Clients will also need to be configured with both DC's as DNS servers.
If the first DC will be offline for any length of time you should also
transfer the FSMO roles to the 2nd one first.
