Transferring an operations master role means moving it from one domain controller to another, with the cooperation of the original role holder. Depending upon the operations master role to be transferred, you perform the role transfer using one of the three Active Directory snap-ins.
| Role | Snap-in |
|---|---|
| Schema master | Active Directory Schema |
| Domain naming master | Active Directory Domains and Trusts |
| Relative identifier master | Active Directory Users and Computers |
| PDC emulator | Active Directory Users and Computers |
| Infrastructure master | Active Directory Users and Computers |
