directory service restore mode

04-13-2010

Hello

If a 2008 DC is restarted into directory service restore mode, can the DC
still process authentication requests, and service DNS queries?

No, the database is offline so services can't read data from it. It
won't answer authentication requests and service DNS queries (if DNS is
ad-integrated).
