The Browse dialog box for a Group Policy object (GPO) on Windows Server 2008 includes a Users tab. This tab does not exist in Windows Server 2003. If you deploy an FCS policy to a user or to a group, an exception is thrown.
FCS policies that are deployed to an existing GPO are tied to a specific domain controller (DC)

FCS policies that are deployed to an existing GPO are tied to a specific DC. If the DC is decommissioned, you cannot change or undeploy that policy.
