There is a trust relation ship issue between my MS SQL DB (Windows) machine and AD. I need to rejoin it in domain. If I remove it from domain and rejoin it, will there be any serious impact? I will also be doing similar activity to the application which is using this DB.

    Normally I won't expect any problems as it will be the same domain.
    All user-guids stay the same and a connection between domain-users on the SQL instance can be paired again.

    Due to the login process onto a SQL Server, there is no key or a checksum changing, so just remove the server from the domain and rejoin.

    Maybe you should check if the SPNs are still exist => better you have a list of al required (or actually created SPNs) for that SQL Server that you'll be able to re-create them.
