Then we should try to solve them. But you need to give more information
about your environment, error messages, etc.

Have you seen
https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/User_Documentation

There you find documentation about joining a DC, DNS, FSMO, etc. But as
soon as you leave the Samba environment (2008->2012 migration), you
should better consult the MS documentation. :-)
