[Samba] Upgrading Samba in a Multi DC environment

Hi all,

I currently have 5 DC's all running 4.1.5 and would like to upgrade them to
4.1.11.

Should I upgrade the FSMO DC first and then the others or perhaps the other
way around?

Can anyone see any pitfalls here?

Also, should I just:

1. stop samba
2. ./conffigure && make && make install
3. restart samba

?

I am also planning on switching to BIND_DLZ (currently running Samba
Internal DNS). Would it be wise to perform this change before upgrading or
vice versa?

Thanks,
Chris.
