Group Policy Management Console Overview (Administering Group Policy with Group Policy Management Console)

In the past, administrators have been required to use several Microsoft tools to manage Group Policy, such as the Active Directory Users and Computers, Active Directory Sites and Services, and Resultant Set of Policy snap-ins. GPMC integrates the existing Group Policy functionality exposed in these tools into a single, unified console, along with several new capabilities.

Built-in to GPMC is support for managing multiple domains and forests, making it possible for administrators to easily manage Group Policy across an enterprise. Administrators have complete control of which forests and domains are listed in GPMC, making it possible to display only pertinent parts of an environment.

By default, the first time GPMC is started it loads the forest and domain containing the user object logged on to the computer. Administrators can then specify which forests and domains to display. When the console is closed, GPMC automatically saves the last view and will return to that view the next time the user opens that console.

The console tree on the left side of the snap-in contains GPMC’s root node Group Policy Management. Each forest appears as a sub node of GPMC’s root node, and is named after the forest root domain for that forest, pre-pended with the word “Forest.” Each forest has either three or four sub nodes of its own: Domains, Sites, Group Policy Modeling, and Group Policy Results. The Group Policy Modeling node is only shown in a forest that has the Windows Server 2003 schema for Active Directory. To perform a Group Policy Modeling analysis, you must also have at least one domain controller that is running Windows Server 2003.

Constraints to Restructuring Domains in a Windows 2000 Forest

The restructuring capabilities in a Windows Server 2003 forest provide solutions to problems that are not addressed in Windows 2000 Server family. In a Windows 2000 forest, renaming domains is essentially not possible after the forest structure is in place without moving domain contents or recreating them. The constraints associated with making domain name changes or domain-tree restructuring in Windows 2000 Active Directory are prohibitive.

In a Windows 2000 forest, you cannot:

  • Change the DNS name or the NetBIOS name of a domain. Although you cannot rename a domain, you can achieve the same results by moving its contents into a new domain that has the name you want the existing domain to have. (Active Directory Object Manager (MoveTree) in the Windows 2000 Server family Support Tools can be used to move directory objects between domains.)

  • Move a domain within a forest in a single operation. As above, you can clone items in and move items from a domain, but you cannot move the entire domain itself within a forest.

  • Split a domain into two domains in a single operation. To split a domain, you must create a new domain and then move appropriate users and resources from the existing domain into the new domain.

  • Merge two domains into a single domain in a single operation. To merge domains, you must move all the contents from one of the domains into the other and then demote all domain controllers in the empty domain and decommission it.

Thus, in a Windows 2000 forest, significant administrative overhead is associated with performing such manual move operations to achieve the domain-tree restructuring or renaming one or more domains.

Constraints to Restructuring Domains in a Windows Server 2003 Forest:

Windows Server 2003 family provides tools with which you can safely rename domains to restructure a Windows 2003 forest. When making a decision about whether to restructure an existing Windows Server 2003 forest, be sure to consider what you cannot do with forest restructuring. Although a Windows 2003 forest has forest restructuring capability, certain types of structural changes are not supported.

In a Windows Server 2003 forest, you cannot:

  • Change which domain is the forest root domain. Changing the DNS or the NetBIOS name of the forest root domain, or both, is supported.

  • Drop domains from the forest or add domains to the forest. The number of domains in the forest before and after the rename/restructure operation must remain the same.

  • Rename a domain with the same name that another domain gave up in a single forest restructure operation.
