FSMO Migration from 2003 to 2008 R2

Question

I am prepping for FSMO migration from 2003 to 2008 R2 this weekend. I was going through the steps and found a issue that is concerning me. On the 2008 server which is a DC and going to hold all FSMO roles. When I right click on Schema to change Schema
Master the "Change field" does not reflect the new 2008 R2 server? Is this by design...As in will this reflect the 2008 R2 server once I do step 1 Change Domain Controller? Single domain simple AD topology. I am an enterprise admin, domain
admin, and schema admin.  The current FSMO is 2003 R2 and it follows to current 2003 R2 and 2008 R2. Will I have to seize the role?
All other FSMO moves show the new server ma-file1. Any help appreciated.

Answer 1

All AD commands show that I have healthy replication, DNS, ect. No errors. Issue as stated above is when I goto "Change Schema Master" on ma-file1 it only gives the option to change to 2003 existing FSMO ma-file. Not sure if I should proceed with
FSMO migratio using NTDSUTIL to manually transfer? Or if anyone has any advice on how to proceed?
C:\>netdom query fsmo
Schema master               ma-file.ccc.local
Domain naming master        ma-file.ccc.local
PDC                         ma-file.ccc.local
RID pool manager            ma-file.ccc.local
Infrastructure master       ma-file.ccc.local
The command completed successfully.
C:\>netdom query dc
List of domain controllers with accounts in the domain:
MA-FILE
MA-FILE1
MA-UTILITY
The command completed successfully.
