FSMO Roles drilldown

FSMO Roles drilldown

The Flexible Single-Master Operation (FSMO) Roles drilldown indicates which domain controller owns each FSMO role. It also indicates which domain controller is the Global Catalog (GC) server.

To display the FSMO Roles drilldown

•	Click (FSMO Roles)

 

NOTE: By default, the FSMO Roles drilldown collects only the FSMO roles for the domain where the domain controller is located. Select Collect FSMO role holders from other domains to collect all FSMO roles in the forest. If selected, this check box is applied to all current connections as well as new future connections.

The FSMO Roles drilldown displays the following information.
