Hi,

a last question. after adding second dc I understand that we have to execute

#samba-tool dbcheck --cross-ncs
#samba-tool dbcheck --cross-ncs --fix

Correct?

This also will update actual server with 4.4.x and will fix? can
generate any issue?

Or will not update this cahnges to other DC and only will be fixed
when an update to 4.10.7 and then we can execute:

#samba-tool dbcheck --cross-ncs
#samba-tool dbcheck --cross-ncs --fix

Best practices about this steps, is a production server and we need to
know correct steps and order to ensure no downtime (if possible)

Thanks
