Domain controller migration 2008r2 to 2019

Hello,

I need to migrate domain controller from 2008r2 to 2019 and I would like to know if I can keep the same ip and same name.
I think I can use temporary ip + name on my new domain controller during the migration and when my new domain controller is operationnal, I just demote the older and remove it from AD. Then I change IP + name on my new DC and reboot + verify DNS are updated and it's ok ?

Thanks for your answer.

Ok, yes definitely redirect the hard coded members and update the DHCP server to hand out valid healthy ones.

Hi... I did a test. I created a new VM with 2019 server standard. Joined to domain, and then moved to de DOMAIN CONTROLLERS OU and then... CRASH!!! The same sympton if I join the server as DC. So there is sth in the group policy at the OU that CRASH 2019 WINDOWS SERVER.

Then I tried to unjoin from the Domain, and also still CRASHED.

Any suggest or someone with new idea? BEFORE REINSTALLING ENTIRE DOMAIN?

I'd start a new thread as opposed to hijacking this one.
