Domain Controller Availability

A Windows EBS domain controller is a server that is running a version of Windows Server 2008 and that has Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) installed. In Windows EBS, the Management Server and the Messaging Server must be domain controllers. Several checks are made to ensure that the domain controllers are in compliance with the licensing agreement.
