I have a Domain controller and a File server.
I want to install AD on our Files server to promote it as a backup Domain Controller.
Does anyone see any problems with Promoting an existing File server with user shares to a Domain Controller.

It depends on how many users your company or organisation has. If less than 100, then it should cope ok. If >100 then I consider getting a new server for a DC role.
