The "Manage your Server" Web Page or typing "dcpromo" on the command line interface
The DS tools consist of the following commands DSQUERY - search for active directory objects matching criteria DSGET - retrieves selected attributes from active directory objects DSMOD - modify attributes for one or more active directory objects DSADD - create active directory objects DSMOVE - move active directory objects DSRM - removes/deletes active directory objects
Go to start->programs->administrative tools->active directory users and computers->right click on users folder and create it
Active Directory Sites and Services
Active directory must be installed . Go to start->run->administrative tools->dns select forward lookup zones right click select ZONE and click on next->then select active directory integrated complete the process
The following command-line tools can be used to manage Active Directory CSVDE Import and export Active Directory data using comma-separated format. Dsadd Add users, groups, computers, contacts, and organizational units to Active Directory. Dsmod Modify an existing object of a specific type in the directory. The types of objects that can be modified are: users, groups, computers, servers, contacts, and organizational units. Dsrm Remove objects of the specified type from Active Directory. Dsmove Rename an object without moving it in the directory tree, or move an object from its current location in the directory to a new location within a single domain controller. (For cross-domain moves, use the Movetree command-line tool.) Dsquery Query and find a list of objects in the directory using specified search criteria. Use in a generic mode to query for any type of object or in a specialized mode to query for for selected object types. The specific types of objects that can be queried through this command are: computers, contacts, subnets, groups, organizational units, sites, servers and users. Dsget Display selected attributes of specific object types in Active Directory. Attributes of the following object types can be viewed: computers, contacts, subnets, groups, organizational units, servers, sites, and users. LDIFDE Ceate, modify, and delete directory objects. This tool can also be used to extend the schema, export Active Directory user and group information to other applications or services, and populate Active Directory with data from other directory services. Ntdsutil General purpose Active Directory management tool. Use Ntdsutil to perform database maintenance of Active Directory, to manage single master operations, and remove metadata left behind by domain controllers that were removed from the network without being properly uninstalled.

Active Directory Migration Tool (ADMT)
One can download the snap-in for Active Directory Users and Computers through the Remote Server Administration Tools. The RSAT can be downloaded directly from the Microsoft website.
version id is different in both the DCs. the version with higher value gets replicated. repladmin and replmon are 2 tools which are used to check the errors in replications and monitoring is done with these tools.conflict resolution is done also.
You can check what processes are running in the background by using system monitoring tools like Task Manager (Windows), Activity Monitor (Mac), or htop (Linux). These tools display a list of active processes, including both foreground and background tasks. Additionally, you can check for background processes in your system's settings or using command-line tools such as top or ps.
