What must you do first?

A.
Perform the DNS role migration.

B.
Perform the Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) migration.

C.
Decommission the Windows SBS 2003 server.

D.
Stop the DHCP Server service on the Windows EBS 2008 server.

Explanation:
You should first perform the DNS role migration. While migrating from Windows SBS 2003 to Windows EBS 2008, you must prepare your existing environment to work with the DHCP Server service for Windows EBS. You need to migrate the DHCP Server service after you have finished installing Windows EBS 2008 and performing the DNS role migration.

You should not migrate the DHCP Server service before migrating the DNS role. When migrating from Windows SBS 2003 to Windows EBS 2008, you must complete the migration of the DHCP Server service and decommission the Windows SBS 2003 within seven days of installing Windows EBS 2008. This grace period can be extended to 21 days by installing a software update for Windows SBS 2003. While migrating the DHCP Server service, you can perform the following steps to ensure that no IP address conflicts occur during the migration process:

1. Log on to your existing DHCP server as domain administrator, and start the DHCP Server service.
2. Open the DHCP snap-in by clicking Start > Administrative Tools > DHCP.
3. In the DHCP server console tree, right-click the server object, and click the Properties option (if your DHCP server is running Windows Server 2008 operating system, you should click the Properties IPv4 option).
4. In the Properties dialog box, click the Advanced tab, and then set the Conflict detection attempts option to 1.
5. Click OK to close the Properties dialog box.

You should not perform the Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) migration because this is not required before migrating the DHCP Server service. You need to migrate the DNS roles before migrating the DHCP Server service.

You should not decommission the Windows SBS 2003 server because this must be completed after migrating the DHCP Server service.
You should not stop the DHCP Server service on Windows EBS 2008 server because this is not required for migrating the DHCP Server service from Windows SBS 2003 to Windows EBS 2008.
