Why development system is considered as domain controller ???

[#1]

Hi ,

SAP recommends Production system as domain controller .Resaon is PRD is secured and has more availability.

But ,Most of the customer systems development system is set as Domail controller.

My guess on this point is , Development system will get installed fisrt in landscape and while configuring the STMS we have to use this system as domain controller.Later this scenario is not changed.

Please let me know why development system is set as domain controller. I have see most of the customer systems are having DEV as domain controller. That's why I would like to know about this point.

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

Actually when you run tcode for the system for the first time it will make the system as domain controller,

as the dev is the system which is installed first this would be the domain controller,but later you should change the domain controller to your production system once prd is up.
