If the Automatically install the NetIQ DRA Agent on all domain controllers option is selected, Directory and Resource Administrator (DRA) performs the following to identify the domain controllers:

  • Windows 2000/2003 domain - To determine all domain controllers in the Active Directory, DRA uses the DSGetDC API call.

  • Windows NT domain  - To determine all domain controllers in an NT domain, DRA queries the Master Browser for the server type (domain controller or member server).
