Is there anyway to limit domain administrators from adding other domain
administrators?
For example I have 10 Domain Admins Admin1-10.
I only want Admin1 to be able to add other domain admins.

How/is this possible?
Thanks!
 
Nope, that is why the number of domain admins (actually native admins in
general) should be a tiny group, say like 3-5. I ran a Fortune 5
environment with 250,000 users and ~375 Domain Controllers across the
world with 3 DA Engineers and 1 DA Manager.

Yep, previous employer had 50,000+ users and had 3 DA's.

As far as limiting it, no, you can't. What you do is have a written policy
on this, and then you audit it. When the rule gets broken, you a) take the
offender and new member out and b) discipline the offender. This falls in
the security breach category. If you can't be trusted to have the rights you
don't belong in my shop is my attitude.
