Hello,
Since Windows Server 2008, Microsoft release Read Only Domain Controllers, but those require a schema extension for old schema version. Whatever schema version you use, you can see if it contains the RODC extension by looking in the “ForestUpdates” container in the configuration partition :
You can also use those PowerShell lines :
$RodcPrepared = [ADSI]"LDAP://CN=ActiveDirectoryRodcUpdate,CN=ForestUpdates,CN=Configuration,DC=$([System.DirectoryServices.ActiveDirectory.Forest]::GetCurrentForest().Name -replace '[.]',',DC=')" if($RodcPrepared.name -eq "ActiveDirectoryRodcUpdate"){$IsRodcPrepared = $true}else{$IsRodcPrepared=$false}
