Remove-DfsnRootTarget - The requested object could not be found

Hi,
I just discovered that both target paths in a DFS root target is referenced by NetBIOS name, not FQDN (the names is generalized):
Get-DfsnRootTarget -Path \\Contoso.local\AccountingSoftware| Format-List
Path                  :
\\Contoso.local\AccountingSoftware
TargetPath            :
\\Contoso-FS1\AccountingSoftware
State                 : Online
ReferralPriorityClass : sitecost-normal
ReferralPriorityRank  : 0
Path                  :
\\Contoso.local\AccountingSoftware
TargetPath            :
\\Contoso-FS2\AccountingSoftware
State                 : Online
ReferralPriorityClass : sitecost-normal
ReferralPriorityRank  : 0
The goal is to remove and re-add the target paths one by one in order to use FQDN.
When trying to remove one of the targets, I receive the following error:
Remove-DfsnRootTarget -TargetPath "\\Contoso-FS2\AccountingSoftware" -Path "\\Contoso.local\AccountingSoftware"
Remove-DfsnRootTarget : The requested object could not be found.
What could be the reason for this? I get a similar error message both when using the DFS MMC tool and dfsutil.

Hi,
Based on your description, we can follow the article below to configure DFS to use fully qualified domain names in referrals.

    Are there any other options to fix this situation.

    MMS is not a Content Database, it is a Service Application Database. Run:
    $db = Get-SPDatabase <GUID>$db.Delete()
    That should do it.

  • The requested item could not be found...

    My phone is one of the tested for Firefox Mobile (Xperia X10), and yet I keep getting the "The requested item could not be found" when trying to download it...

    If you have a compatible device, you can download Firefox 4 Beta for Android by clicking the "apk" file on this page, using your phone's web browser:
    http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/mobile/releases/latest-beta/android-r7/multi/
    Short URL: http://bit.ly/fxmobilebeta
    Note: While the Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 is compatible with Firefox for Android, the X10 Mini and X10 Mini Pro are not. For details, see: https://wiki.mozilla.org/Mobile/Platforms/Android#System_Requirements

  • Getting error message "the requested item could not be found" when trying to install Firefox on my android.

    I had to uninstall Firefox for Android because I was having problems logging in to sync. I got a support e-mail to uninstall and reinstall because the sync issue had been fixed. I uninstalled the Firefox app and then when I tried to reinstall it I get the error message on my phone "the requested item could not be found." HELP!

    Some supported phones are not displaying Firefox in the Market for some reason. We're still investigating this. You can check if your phone is supported here:
    https://wiki.mozilla.org/Mobile/Platforms/Android
    and then download the app directly from here:
    http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/mobile/releases/4.0b3/android-r7/multi/
    (Note: If your phone is from AT&T, you will have to search for instructions on "sideloading" the APK file, since AT&T disables the option to install from non-Market sources.)

  • I have an Epic 4G. When I try to download Firefox for Mobile I get a message the requested item could not be found. Help?

    When I try to download Firefox for Android on my Epic 4G I get a message saying the item could not be found.

    An update to quote mbrubeck:
    Firefox will not appear in the Market for most phones with incompatible hardware. You can check if your phone is supported here:
    https://wiki.mozilla.org/Mobile/Platforms/Android
    Even on some supported devices, a bug in the Market software prevents Firefox from showing up. This may be related to the fairly recent Android Market app update. If you go to Settings/Applications/Market and choose "Uninstall" you can uninstall the update, and then search for and install Firefox from the marketplace.
    Or, if you have a supported phone, you can download the app directly by typing this address into your phone's browser: http://bit.ly/fxbeta3
    (Note: To download the app directly for an AT&T phone, you will have to search for instructions on "sideloading" the APK file, since AT&T disables the option to install from non-Market sources.)

  • When I click the link to install Firefox to my Android phone I recieve the error: The requested item could not be found.

    My phone is an LG Optimus, presumable of the type necessary to install Firefox. The download does not appear when I click the link.
    Duplicate of https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/781287

    Sorry but this phone is not compatible with the current mobile Firefox releases due to the ARMv6 (ARM11) CPU it uses when release work on ARMv7 cpu's.
    Also it needs the Android 2.1 update if you are still running 1.6
    You can perhaps try the experimental ARMv6 nightlies (Fennec).

  • [Solved] The requested object does not exist. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80010114)

    I have a 8 node cluster with Hyper-V, which will be 10 nodes when it's finally done.
    Recently I've been try to add nodes and though that went fine, after about a week I could not open the Failover Cluster Manager anymore.
    After some checking I found out that the latest added node was giving problems.
    VM's on the node still run and function properly, but most Powershell commands result in a "The requested object does not exist. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80010114)".
    I can suspend the node with Suspend-ClusterNode, but draining roles was unsuccesful in one case.
    In the other there were no VM's on the node so suspending went fine.
    What I did find out was that when I tried to ping the node from another, proper functioning node, it took a while before the pinging started. It felt like the interface had to come back online on the problem node.
    After that, I could add the cluster to the Failover Cluster Manager. However, Powershell commands still give a 0x80010114 error or a CIM error for when I use Get-NetAdapter.
    A reboot resolves the problem, but only for about a week.
    I know there is a topic with the same title already, but the wbemtest en rollup update "answer" is totally unclear to me why I should change something with wbemtest, or why to install updates that to me have nothing to do with this problem.
    Before I did the ping test from a functioning node I pinged my DC and another node from the problem node just fine.
    No waiting at all.
    The cluster has three networks. Management (host only), Live Migration and iSCSI (also a VMSwitch for certain VM's).
    I have no idea where to look. Evenviewer doesn't give me anything I can work with that I can find...

    When I try to access GameCenter on my Mac it says "The requested operation could not be completed due to an error communicating with the server." How can I fix this?

    This usually caused by a customised hosts file.
    These need to be the only entries in your /etc/hosts file:-
    # Host Database
    # localhost is used to configure the loopback interface
    # when the system is booting.  Do not change this entry.
    127.0.0.1       localhost
    255.255.255.255 broadcasthost
    ::1             localhost
    fe80::1%lo0     localhost
    Remove anything below these entries, then try and reconnect with GC. Once GC starts properly you can put the extra entries back in your hosts file, GC should start normally afterwards.

  • "The attempted operation failed. An object could not be found" error when double clicking on an ics file

    Operation System: Windows 8 Pro
    System Type: 64-bit Operating System
    Office: MS Office Professional Plus 2013
    I am getting "The attempted operation failed. An object could not be found" error when I double click on an .ics file to an appointment to my calender. My outlook.com account's data file is set as default and this error only occurs if
    that is the default data file. I thought that maybe my profile is corrupted. So, I opened up a new profile with the below steps and only add my outlook.com account there:
    1-) Open up the Control Panel and go to Mail section
    2-) Click "Show Profiles"
    3-) Click "Add" and give a name to your profile.
    4-) Configure your outlook.com account (with Auto Account setup, not manual steps)
    5-) Finally, set that profile to be used always.
    Then, I opened up the Outlook 2013 and clicked on the .ics file to add that appointment but got the same error.
    Is this a known issue or specific to me?
    Thanks!

    yes, I have the same problem.
    The workaround of saving the ICS file and then importing it into the current calendar
    works, 
    but the ICS calendar
     displays in other section, NOT in the section of my old events.
    why  ??

  • When you try to send or to receive email in Outlook 2010, you may receive one of these error messages: 0x8004010F: Outlook data file cannot be accessed. or 0x8004010F: The operation failed. An object could not be found.

    1. reviewed Profile instructions
    2. Ran SytTools thinking it would fix the error. NO although I could send received I ended up with a giant pst 
    3. Back to Profile Instructions.
    4. Set up new profile with my email address. email address tested well. Run Outlook. loads as outlook data PST
    and  gmail address PST.  Deleted all the Gmail subscriptions to improve speed. Original error was gone but have two GIGANIC PST FILES.
    5. Set up another new profile with my email address and a named pst.  Run Outlook under that Profile -
    comes up with newly named pst and the gmail addrress pst (although I can't figure out where that pst is located. Will not let me use email address as default Profile.  Tried different approaches and still ended up always with the gmail address pst.  Deleted
    all profiles but email address and comes   up.
    6. Should I just go ahead and use the gmail address pst  I need to import data or download data from gmail
    to get last years correspondence.e
    7. Outlook is my lifeblood, I am in communications and every submitted email gets moved to a file with an update.
    Help?
    8. One option is to merge psts but might make worse mess.
    Thanks.  Beautiful Beach weather here!

    To resolve error 0x8004010F , identify the current location of your default Outlook data file, and then create a new Outlook profile.
    Step 1- Locate the default Outlook data file
    Click Start, and then click Control Panel.
    In Control Panel, click Mail.
    In the Mail Setup - Outlook dialog box, click Show Profiles.
    Select your current Outlook profile, and then click Properties.
    In the Mail Setup - Outlook dialog box, click Data Files.
    Select the Data Files tab in the Account Settings dialog box, and then note the name and location of the default data file for your profile (a check mark will denote the default data file).
    Click Close.
    Step 2 - Create a new Outlook profile
    Step 3 - Configure your new Outlook profile as the default profile

  • The requested operation could not be performed because OLE DB provider "MSOLAP" for linked server does not support the required transaction interface.

    I am getting the following error when attempting to INSERT the results of an "EXEC(@MDXQuery) at SSAS LinkedServer":
    The requested operation could not be performed because OLE DB provider "MSOLAP" for linked server does not support the required transaction interface.
    Here is code that illustrates what I am doing:
    DECLARE @MDX varchar(max);
    SET @MDX='
    SELECT
    [Measures].[Extended Service Count]
    } ON COLUMNS,
    NON EMPTY [Organization].[By Manufacturer].[Manufacturer]
    ON ROWS
    FROM (
    SELECT
    {[Organization].[Org Tree].&[2025],[Organization].[Org Tree].&[2040]} ON 0
    FROM [MyCube]
    /* Test 1 */

    /* Test 2 */
    DECLARE @ResultsB TABLE (
    Manufacturer varchar(255)
    , ExtendedServiceCount float
    INSERT INTO @ResultsB (Manufacturer, ExtendedServiceCount) EXECUTE(@MDX) at SSASLinkedServer;
    Test 1 succeeds, returning expected results, and Test 2 fails returning the error mentioned above.
    Other articles I've found so far don't seem to apply to my case.  I am not creating any explicit transactions in my code.   When I use OPENQUERY, I am able to do the insert just fine, but not when I use EXEC @MDX at LinkedServer.
    Unfortunately in some variations of the query, I run into the 8800 character limit on OPENQUERY, so I need to use this other approach.
    Any ideas?

    Hi Tab,
    In this case, SQL Server Analysis Services doesn’t support Distributed Transactions by design. Here is a similar thread about this issue for your reference, please see:
    http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/8b07be45-01b6-49d4-b773-9f441c0e44c9/olaplinked-server-error-msolap-for-linked-server-olaplinked-server-does-not-support-the?forum=sqlanalysisservices
    One workaround is that use SQLCMD to execute the EXEC AT command and saved the results to a file, then import using SSIS.
