we have mixed windows 2003 2008 domain controllers. 1 of 2003 domain controllers has been offline year due network connectivity issue. can bring network concern may have exceeded tombstone period, , cause problems in ad.

now remove offline dc ad. plan not bother bring online , go ahead manual removal procedure. best way @ point? if run metadata clean up, matter if 03 dc or 08 dc?
