DC Bye

Updated a VM from server 2016 to 2022, but an error occurred mid upgrade. Its trying to boot to the roll-back but is stuck in a loop.

Bold move, attempting an in-place upgrade on a domain controller that was also serving DHCP. Crazy.

YOLO, I guess.

Time to seize roles on another DC and call it a day on this one. Either recreate DHCP or attempt to grab the DHCP database offline and copy it over somewhere functional. Iโ€™ve had to do this before in cleaning up someone elseโ€™s screw-up.

This is the kinda crap I used to have to deal with routinely.
