Make the source, asset scope, owner, and expected outcome explicit in the review record. Record the source location, examined part of Active Directory objects, search bases, domain controllers, delegated roles, cmdlet parameters, and the DNS paths used to locate directory services, observed and expected states, owner, and reason for deviation.\nDo not move from citation to production in one step. Pilot the decision where practical, observe agreed signals, retain a reversal point, and verify Active Directory replication, Windows DNS, domain-controller location, time, network reachability, privileges, and protected credentials. Handle credentials, keys, recovery data, and personal information through approved secure channels.\nVerification and evidence\nEvidence should let another reviewer reproduce this decision. Retain observations beside the traced locations Introduction below H1; Summary. Favor sanitized command transcripts, parameter records, directory exports, authorization records, DNS locator tests, and before-and-after state, linked to stable identifiers, time, and operator.\nLabel this evidence set DSE-20260827-317 so observations, approvals, exceptions, and later rechecks cannot be substituted from another source review.\nClose the review only when the evidence, exception handling, resulting action, and after-state are linked. Schedule a new review after material technical, organizational, incident, or source changes; today’s observation is not a continuing guarantee.\nOfficial references\n\nHow to upgrade Windows 2000 domain controllers to Windows Server 2003 — Microsoft",
