I don't see how or where to mark your reply as the answer, but it did answer my question.
Finally getting to reply to this post. Upgrade went very smooth. Just need to ensure you are at R2 SP1. Saturday, August 6, PM. I can vouch for this, We have a R2 CA and instead of building a new server and migrating services An in place upgrade was performed and everything took off fine. Monday, May 21, PM. I was curious, what would the opinion be of a R2 domain controller running certificate services? Would an in place upgrade be advisable, or removing the DC role first before doing an in place upgrade?

You should not remove certificate templates from Active Directory until after you remove all CA objects in the Active Directory forest. In the right pane, locate the container object for the server where Certificate Services is installed. Right-click the container, select Delete , and then select Yes two times.
If the object is not deleted, right-click the object, select Delete , and then select Yes. If you did not locate all the objects, some objects may be left in the Active Directory after you perform these steps. To clean up after a CA that may have left objects in Active Directory, follow these steps to determine whether any AD objects remain:. For example, if the Name value is CA1 Contoso, type the following:.
Open the remainingCAobjects. Replace the term changetype: add with changetype: delete. Then, verify whether the Active Directory objects that you will delete are legitimate. Delete the certificate templates if you are sure that all of the certificate authorities have been deleted. Repeat step 12 to determine whether any AD objects remain. You must not delete the certificate templates unless all the certificate authorities have been deleted.
If the templates are accidentally deleted, follow these steps:. Make sure that you are logged on to a server that is running Certificate Services as Enterprise administrator. Use either of the following commands to delete certificates from within the NTAuthCertificates store:. The -viewdelstore action invokes the certificate selection UI on the set of certificates in the specified attribute. You can view the certificate details.
