So we've got multiple test/dev/cert domains that I would like to manage from our single production Primary Site. Punch some holes in the firewall and deploy a secondary in each of those test domains.
Here's the hitch - each of those domains is a duplicate of production. You know - P2V'd domain controller, metadata-edited, FSMO roles seized and deployed as a standalone DC in order to most closely resemble production.
I could swear I've seen this same issue detailed in the forums before, and the answer was "don't do it". In other words, this could be a very, very stupid question.
