Domain Replication issue

Hi,
I am using windows server 2008 R2 as PDC and ADC. My ADC was offline for more than 7 month .Now when it come online i am facing issue wit replication...
Problem: "Trust relation between this computer and the primary domain failed"
Event viewer log is-
It has been too long since this machine last replicated with the named source machine. The time between replications with this source has exceeded the tombstone lifetime. Replication has been stopped with this source.
 The reason that replication is not allowed to continue is that the two DCs may contain lingering objects.  Objects that have been deleted and garbage collected from an Active Directory Domain Services partition but still exist in the writable
partitions of other DCs in the same domain, or read-only partitions of global catalog servers in other domains in the forest are known as "lingering objects".  If the local destination DC was allowed to replicate with the source DC, these potential
lingering object would be recreated in the local Active Directory Domain Services database.
Time of last successful replication:
2014-08-01 08:52:53 
Invocation ID of source directory server:......................................
 I have tried repadmin /remove lingering object............................. ,tried re joining the system to domain,netdome trust command etc...still issue not getting resolved.Need help on this
Regards

It is normal that, when a DC does not replicate since a long time, it gets tombstoned.
Please proceed as the following:
On the faulty DC, run dcpromo /forceremoval to force its demotion
Check if the faulty DC holds any FSMO roles using netdom query fsmo. In case it holds some, seize them on the other DC: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/255504?wa=wsignin1.0
Do a metadata cleanup to remove the faulty DC references: https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc816907%28v=ws.10%29.aspx
Once done, use dcdiag command to make sure that your left DC is in healthy state.

  • Domain Replication Issue. Is there Any Process can be monitored in task Manager which is responsible for REPLICATION?

    Hi,
       There is an issue with Secondary domain controller replication. I am interested in the "Windows Process" which is responsible for Replication.
      We have a 3rd party tool in our project which generate alarm when a windows process in not running(configured).
    I believe  Remote Procedure Call (RPC) is used to replicate data and is always used for intrasite replication. But How to find out which RPC is responsible? or any other windows process is responsible?
    Is it possible to find out "Replication problem" by just monitoring "Responsible Windows Process" ? ( process is running or not running)

    Hello,

  • Replication issues: Operations Master shows ERROR and attempting to connect to server shares gets "the target account name is incorrect"

    I think this should be easily resolved, but I need some guidance.
    I have a client with 2 Server 2003 R2 x64 DCs: BORIS & NATASHA. Last year I upgraded both of them from x86 to x64 one at a time, allowing replication to occur between the upgrades. BORIS is the FSMO roles holder as it is currently the production server,
    while NATASHA is a backup DC. One thing that puzzles me though is that if I look at the NS record in DNS on the SOA tab, it says NATASHA is the Primary server.
    While doing some routine maintenance I noticed an error in the File Replication Service events about a 'Tombstone' situation (Event ID 2042). I looked at article cc757610 in the Technet Library and opted for remedy #3 as I did not want to demote NATASHA
    and I got confused looking at the help about using "repadmin /removelingeringobjects". I have no idea how to determine which DC has the good copy of the directory.
    Now, in running "repadmin /showrepl" I get
    "DC=CPA,DC=local
        Default-First-Site-Name\BORIS via RPC
            DC object GUID: 0267a090-1890-40e2-9a15-ea928cabd425
            Last attempt @ 2012-12-27 08:28:55 failed, result -2146893022 (0x80090322):
                The target principal name is incorrect.
            1179 consecutive failure(s).        Last success @ 2012-12-21 23:30:15." <-- THIS IS WEIRD SINCE THIS IS THE DATE THAT I DISCOVERED THE TOMBSTONE EVENT AND MADE THE REGISTRY CHANGE
    (I THINK).
    When I try to look at the FSMO roles on NATASHA, it shows ERROR for RID, PDC & Infrastructure and says "The current Operations Master is offline. The role cannot be transferred." The other issue I'm having is that client PCs are intermittently having
    trouble reconnecting to necessary server shares.
    TIA

    Hello Sandesh,
    I spent a lot of time trying to understand using NETDOM to reset machine account passwords (don't understand it yet), but I see that you're saying that won't work anyway.
    I'm not really sure how to tell which DC is the broken one, but I'm assuming it's BORIS since that's the one users are unable to connect to. Since it is the FSMO role holder and GC I want to make sure I understand the steps correctly:
    1.Use dcpromo to forcefully demote BORIS
    2.Do metadata cleanup on NATASHA (using ntdsutil?)
    3.Promote BORIS again to DC
    Should I leave NATASHA as the FSMO role holder and GC? BORIS is the better (more resources/faster processor) machine and it's the file server. Or should the better machine be the FSMO role holder and GC as well as the file server. NATASHA is meant to be
    a backup in case BORIS dies.
    Thanks,

    Hi,
    The step you are performing is correct but you also need to seize the FSMO role on other DC if BORIS is FSMO role holder and configure authorative time server role.You can later move the famo role to  BORIS server the choice is your however if you are
    moveing the role then you need configure authorative time server on BORIS server.

  • Active directory SYSVOL replication issues

    Hello. 
    I have 2 domain controllers, both of them on the same site DC1 & DC2. I have added a new site with a DC3. When I have added DC3 to the domain, I have realized, SYSVOL was not initialized correctly. I went back to DC1 and found out, there's following
    error in the event viewer:
    Error: 4012 on DC1
    The DFS Replication service stopped replication on the folder with the following local path: C:\Windows\SYSVOL\domain. This server has been disconnected from other partners for 99 days, which is longer than the time allowed by the MaxOfflineTimeInDays parameter
    (60). DFS Replication considers the data in this folder to be stale, and this server will not replicate the folder until this error is corrected.
    Error: 2213 on DC2
    The DFS Replication service stopped replication on volume C:. This occurs when a DFSR JET database is not shut down cleanly and Auto Recovery is disabled. To resolve this issue, back up the files in the affected replicated folders, and then use the ResumeReplication
    WMI method to resume replication. 
    This indicates a DFS replication issue between DC1 & DC2 and probably this would be the reason, why the SYSVOL was not properly initialized on DC3. 
    How can I restore correct DFS replication between DC1 & DC2? I've read
    this article, but it's not clear to me, which of the 2 domain controllers has a good version of SYSVOL + I can not find a decent step-by-step article for reconnecting Windows 2012 domain controller.
    Any idea, how I can proceed further here?

    Here's a complete documentation with resolution of my issue. I have created this documentation for my own purposes in our WIKI, so I will paste it here (I hope, it will help somebody else in the future):
    The Problem
    We have bought a new server for our domain. This server (NEWDC01) was promoted to be a domain
    controller in the DOMAIN. After the promotion, I have added a single computer to the domain. When I have logged on the client to the domain, I realized, this computer is not using the new domain controller (NEWDC01)
    for authentication, but DC02 domain controller instead. This is not intended. Local clients should use local domain controllers for authentication (assuming, the Active directory sites & services are configured properly). Further investigation revealed,
    there are some replication errors on OLDDC01 & OLDDC02 servers. First I need to solve these replication errors. Then I can
    add the NEWDC01 server to domain properly.
    Analysis
    There are several errors related to DFSR replication on both domain controllers:
    Error: 4012 on OLDDC01
    The DFS Replication service stopped replication on the folder with the following local path: C:\Windows\SYSVOL\domain.
    This server has been disconnected from other partners for 99 days, which is longer than the time allowed by the MaxOfflineTimeInDays parameter (60). DFS Replication considers the data in this folder to be stale, and this server will not replicate the folder
    until this error is corrected.
    Error: 2213 on OLDDC02
    The DFS Replication service stopped replication on volume C:. This occurs when a DFSR JET database
    is not shut down cleanly and Auto Recovery is disabled. To resolve this issue, back up the files in the affected replicated folders, and then use the ResumeReplication WMI method to resume replication.
    In order to have active directory in a healthy condition, one must ensure, there’s a successful
    replication between existing domain controllers up and running. If the replication does not work correctly, you can expect bunch of issues.
    group policies and logon scripts are not applied correctly, or as intended
    when you want to add a new domain controller to the domain, it will not work as expected (although, you will not see any specific errors after the
    server is promoted to be a domain controller)
    Active directory backup
    I have scheduled an AD backup on OLDDC01 server using the ‘Windows Backup’ solution to make sure,
    I can restore the AD / SYSVOL, in case something goes wrong. The backup is scheduled to be executed every day.
    Active directory restore
    In this particular case, I will talk only about SYSVOL restore. As indicated above, we must get
    rid of the DFSR event viewer errors which you can find in event viewer. One of them is indicating, that the JET database was not shut down cleanly and autorecovery was disabled. The other error indicates, the SYSVOL volume is no longer replicated. I am not
    sure, what is the reason, why the AD’s in the domain stopped to replicate. Probably it was an unclean server shutdown. The DFSR service stopped to replicate the SYSVOL share and I was not aware about that. When the replication did not run for more than ~99
    days, the SYSVOL share was excluded from the DFSR replications.
    Find out the most accurate SYSVOL share in the domain
    I have compared the content of the SYSVOL directories on both OLDDC01 and OLDDC02 servers: C:\Windows\SYSVOL\domain\Policies.
    Both directories have 37 subdirectories. Each subdirectory corresponds to one group policy. This means, that the content is approximately the same, thus I can’t tell, which version is most recent. I do most of the GPO changes on OLDDC01, so I made a conclusion,
    that this server contains the most recent version of the SYSVOL share.
    There are 2 types of SYSVOL restores, you can do:
    Authoritative restore
    Non-authoritative restore
    Non-authoritative restore
    This is a more simple kind of a restore. You can perform this kind of restore, when you are sure,
    that one of the domain controllers is authoritative (e.g. you presume, the SYSVOL share is intact and working properly). If you can identify such a working server, you can perform non-authoritative restore of the active directory on a broken domain controller.
    Authoritative restore
    In this case, you can designate a specific domain controller to be authoritative. You set a special
    flag on this server, which will prohibit to overwrite it’s state from another domain controllers, when the replication is enabled on the server again. After you designate one server to be authoritative, you need to update all the another domain controllers
    using the non-authoritative procedure.
    In this article, you can find, how to perform authoritative vs. non authoritative AD resotre:
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2218556.
    In my case, I was not sure, which of the domain controllers had a more recent copy of AD, so I
    have decided to make OLDDC01 authoritative (check the link above). Once this has been done, I have made a non-authoritative update on OLDDC02 server.
    Everything was almost ready. The last step, I needed to execute was, I needed to fix the ‘JET’
    event viewer error on SRVBK1. In the event log entry on the bottom, you can find following:
    Recovery Steps
    1. Back up the files in all replicated folders on the volume. Failure to do
    so may result in data loss due to unexpected conflict resolution during the recovery of the replicated folders.
    2. To resume the replication for this volume, use the WMI method ResumeReplication
    of the DfsrVolumeConfig class. For example, from an elevated command prompt, type the following command:
    wmic /namespace:\\root\microsoftdfs path dfsrVolumeConfig
    where volumeGuid="D37A9FC3-8B1D-11E2-93E8-806E6F6E6963" call ResumeReplication
    For more information, see http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2663685.
    Final words
    After I have executed this command, the replication was again started between OLDDC01 and OLDDC02
    servers. After I have started up the NEWDC01 server, I have realized, it has automatically replicated the contents of the SYSVOL share - almost immediately after the server was started up. I have again tried to login with the local client into DOMAIN domain
    and now I see, that local client is using local Domain controller for authentication.
    Everything seems to be OK now.

  • AD replication issue. had 1722 error after running repadmin

    Hi,
    I got 1722 error ( The RPC server is unavailable) when I run repadmin /replsummary. The result points that one source DSA is having 1722 error and the problem DC is the DC I run repadmin command from.
    Do it make sense. Why DC itself cannot rpc to itself?
    Thanks
    Qing

    I would start with what is mentioned in this Wiki article: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/18513.active-directory-replication-issues-basic-troubleshooting-steps-single-ad-domain-in-a-single-ad-forest.aspx
    That should be a good start for troubleshooting.

  • DC Replication issue

    Hello Team,
    We have built a new Domain Controller in our environment with OS 2003 Server.
    While checking for replication from an existing server (using the command repadmin /replsummary) I get and an as below:
    1753 - NLHAAAHDC002
    (NLHAAAHDC002 is the DC name that is built new)
    Also if I run the same command on the new server (NLHAAAHDC002) I get the error that as below:
    "'repadmin' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
    operable program or batch file".
    An urgent response is appreciated.

  • Replication issue between lync 2010 FE and lync 2013 FE

    Hello
    I face any issue in my lync server's .
    I was in the last steps in the migration process from lync 2010 to 2013 enterprise edition .
    where CMS was moved already to 2013 , and later on many time I checked the replication and it was fine , then I deleted the CMS DB FROM 2010 FE and I checked the replication and it was fine .
    later on I proceed to delete the archiving server and monitoring server and it was fine .
    later on I proceed to
    Reset call admission control
    Prevent sessions for services
    Stop Lync Server 2010 services
    Remove a Front End Server from a pool
    I just I face this replication issue after I start the process to delete the lync 2010 pool which im stuck on it now .
    one more thing while I was trying to delete the 2010 front end pool , I got the error .
    Error: An error occurred: "System.InvalidOperationException" "Cannot publish topology changes. Conference directories still exist on a pool that would be deleted. Remove the conference directories before continuing."
    so I moved the conference directories from 2010 pool to the 2013 pool successfully.
    but later on when I check the replication I notice the replication issue ?

    why LastUpdateCreation : 3/23/2015 10:53:23 PM from the lync 2010 pool  ????
    I'm not doing any change on 2010 pool now (I just try to delete it ) , all the change it is on 2013 pool .
    for edge server 2013 I shut down the server since there is another configuration issue there (so replication to edge server not the issue now since it is down).
    my question is this will affect my lync 2013 since it is the production now  ? is this un completed steps for removing the 2010 pool affect my production.
    is the replication issue affects my 2013 pool ?
    Kind Regards
    MK

    Hi,
    From your description above, did you mean before deleting the Lync Server 2010 Pool from topology, you found the replication of Lync 2010 FE Server not update to date?
    If it is the case, based on my knowledge, there is no affect for Lync Server 2013 Pool. Please double check if Lync Server 2013 Pool work normally, and Lync users in Lync 2013 Pool can use all Lync function without issues. Then you can delete Lync 2010 Pool
    from Topology and publish it. After finish it, please re-run step 2 on Lync Server 2013 FE Servers.
    Best Regards,

  • Data Domain - Replication Acceleration vs Application Acceleration?

    http://www.datadomain.com/pdf/DataDomain-Cisco-SolutionBrief.pdf
    I recently read an article by Cisco detailing the WAAS appliances capability to add addional deduplicaion to Data Domain replication traffic being forwarded across the WAN.  After reading the aricle and speaking with my SE.  He recommended a 674 in Application Acceleration mode vs the WAE 7341 in Replication Acceleration mode.  The article also states Application Acceleration mode was used.
    Why is Application Acceleration mode recommended over Replication Acceleration mode for this traffic?
    I have a project requiring 15 - 20 GB / day of incremental backups to be replicated between 3 sites.  The sites are 90 ~ 110ms apart and the links are around 20mbps at each site.  Would a 674 in Application Acceleration mode really make a difference for the Data Domain replications?

    Is their any possibility you could dig up the configuration that was used on the WAAS Application Accelerator during the Data Domain testing.  I see Data Domain replication service runs over port TCP 4126.  My SE recommends disabling the WAE 674s DRE functions for the Data Domain traffic and simply reply on LZ & TFO.  How do you simply disable DRE, but still use LZ and TFO?
    I see 3 common settings;
    action optimize full                                                       LZ+TFO+DRE
    action optimize DRE no compression none          TFO only
    action pass-through                                                    bypass
    Can you do LZ+TFO only?  None of the applications in the link below show this type of action setting.  This leads me to believe my SE was really suggesting turn off DRE completely for the WAAS.
    This WAAS needs to optimize traffic for;
    Lotus-Notes, HTTP, CIFS, Directory Services, RDP, and Data Domain
    Can all applications above + Data Domain be optimized from a pair of WAE 674s in AA mode?

  • Active Directory : Replication Issue - "Disconnected" sub-domain from the Forest

    Hello everyone,
    I'm managing a multi-domain forest (with 7 sub-domain).  All are working fine except for one.  Throught repadmin (Repadmin /replsum /bysrc /bydest /sort:delta), I noticed I got both domain controllers of a subdomain (there are only 2 DCs in that
    subdomain), who hadn't replicated with the rest of the forest for more than 60 days.
    According to my research, it's usually recommended to Depromote and repromote the problematic DC to avoid the issue of lingering objects.  In this case, it's both DC of a sub-domain.  Of course, on the others DCs in the forest, I got the event
    ID 2012 "it has been too long since this machine last replicated with the named source machine....". 
     HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\NTDS\Parameters\Allow Replication With Divergent and Corrupt Partner
    to a value of 1. 
    As I understand it, this may cause lingering objects to appear (they can be removed with repadmin /removelingeringobjects command with the DSA GUID, naming context, etc..).  So far, I haven't used that registry key yet because of the associated risks.
    I didn't noticed any other issue so far.  Users in the problematic sub-domain are fine, and the problematic sub-domain seems to be able to pull replication data from the others DCs in the forests. (at least, I'm not getting any error in the A.D. Sites
    and Services)
    I added two new DCs for the affected sub-domains, so the number of DCs for that domain went from 2 to 4 DCs.  The two old DCs that hadn't replicated for 60 days are windows Server 2003 and the two new DCs are Server 2008 R2. 
    Unfortunately (and I was half expecting this, but did it anyway since I must eventually replace the old DCs), that didn't solve my issue, since the rest of the forest "doesn't see" the two new DCs of the sub-domain.  By that, I mean that I
    cannot add an Active Directory Domain Services Connection in Sites & Services console (from a DC in another domain of the forest or even the root domain).  I see all the DCs, including the two old DCs that are server 2003, but not the new ones. 
    I believe it's because the others DCs doesn't pull/replicate the information from the old DCs anymore, so they aren't "aware" of the two new DCs for that problematic sub-domain.
    I was wondering what is the best course of action. Is it worthwhilte to use the registry key force replication with the old DCs ?  (and hopefully, the new DCs will get their AD Services connection/replication vector created, so I can depromote
    the old DCs.
    Since the Old DCs from the problematic sub-domain seems to be able to pull the replication from the rest of the forest, does the risk of Lingering object isn't that great ?
    Or is it too risky and I must create a new sub-domain and migrate one way or another the users ? (which would be time-consuming)
    Thanks in advance,
    Adam

    Thanks for the reply.  One of the link had another link to a good article about the use of repadmin :
    So, I ran the command "repadmin /removinglingerobjects " on one of the problematic DCs ().
    For clarity purpose, let's say I used the domain :
    domain = main domain
    subdomain = the domain whose DC are problematic (all of them).
    AnotherSubDomain = Just another subdomain I used as a "reference" DC to cleanup the appropriate partition.
    Command (the DSA guid is from a DC "clean" in another domain)
    repadmin /removelingeringobjects adrec01.mysubdomain.domain.ca C4081E00-921A-480D-9FDE-C4C34F96E7AC dc=ANOTHERsubdomain,dc=domain,dc=ca /advisory_mode
    I got the following message in the event viewer :
    Active Directory Domain Services has completed the verification of lingering objects on the local domain controller in advisory mode. All objects on this domain controller have had their existence verified on the following source domain controller.
    Source domain controller:
    c4081e00-921a-480d-9fde-c4c34f96e7ac._msdcs.mydomain.ca
    Number of objects examined and verified:
    0
    Objects that have been deleted and garbage collected on the source domain controller yet still exist on this domain controller have been listed in past event log entries. To permanently delete the lingering objects, restart this procedure without using the
    advisory mode option.
    How should I interpret the message "number of objects examined and verified 0".  Does it mean it just didn't find any object to compare ? (which would be odd IMHO)  Or there is another problem ?
    Thanks in advance,
    Adam

  • AD Replication issues, SYSVOL / NETLOGON not replicating

    Hello Experts!
    We have a client that recently called us for some assistance. The IT department had a new virtual environment stood up. They Created 3 new VMs and promoted them all to domain controllers. The current domain and forest functional levels are (and were) Server
    2003. There were two existing domain controllers, both Server 2003. The new domain controllers are Server 2012 R2. After promoting the 3 new servers to DC’s, they demoted one of the old DC’s. Then they transferred FSMO roles to a new 2012 R2 DC. When they
    went to demote the last server 2003 DC, it was giving them the error that it is the last DC in the domain. That’s when we were called to assist. I have since demoted 2 of the 3 new 2012 R2 DCs and transferred all FSMO roles back to the Server 2003 DC.
    I have been running some tools to try and gather data. Here is the DCDIAG from the last Server 2003 DC:

    e is not fully qualified, and the target domain (domainname.COM) is different from the client domain (domainname.COM),
     check if there are identically named server accounts in these two domains, or use the fully-qualified name to identify
    the server.

    From here I can see SYSVOL and NETLOGON are not replicating from server2003server. When I log on to server2003server and run ‘net share’ the SYSVOL and NETLOGON shares are shared. But, when I do the same on 2012R2DC there are no NETLOGON or SYSVOL shares.
    I see ntfrs issues. So I ran ntfrsutl ds on server2003server and the results are here:

    Also worth noting that when we power down SERVER2003SERVER no computer can contact a logon server. 
    The last line of this worries me as well. I am going to continue to work on this but I wanted to get these logs to some other eyes in case you have some ideas off the bat. Thanks in advance!

    I would first recommend to make sure that the new DCs are also global catalogs and to refer to IP setting recommendations I shared here: http://www.ahmedmalek.com/web/fr/home.asp
    It is possible to do a non-authoritative restore of SYSVOL to make it appear on the other DCs: https://support.microsoft.com/kb/290762?wa=wsignin1.0
    However, you would need to upgrade to DFSR.

  • Active Directory Ghost Object replication issue

    I have a Windows 2003, Single Forest with nearly 50 Domains. This is a constantly changing, deployable system where not all Domains are connected and online at all times.
    Some months ago 2 of these domains were held up in transit and tombstoned. Before they were connected to the Forest again they went to our Hardware support department to be "cleaned" meaning remove dust etc, instead they wiped the arrays on all
    servers.
    Our Level 4 Support team reanimated these node after restoring them from a really old backup.
    This backup did not refelect the AD as it was when it was deleted, therefore we have several orphaned objects form those domains. The Domains are functioning correctly and replicating, however, the GC in the forest is inconsistent and the orphaned/ghost
    objects are still being replicated.
    We have rehosted the directory partitions from the problem nodes to online domains which works fine, but as soon as another domain comes online the orphaned objects are again replicated into the Global Catalog. The nature of our system means that we cannot
    control when the other domains are coming back online to rehost them before replicating the object items back into the GC.
    I have made several LDAP queries and can see that the items no longer exist on the problem domain, the only reference to the objects is in the GC directory partitions of those domains.
    The biggest issue I have is that these objects were mail enabled users and when the GAL queries the GC it is repopulating them. 
    I've hit a bit of a wall now and do not know how we can remove these ghost objects without having all domains online at the same time and rehosting the problem domains partitions forest wide. I'd appreciate any assistnce.
    I have asked this question before but with less detail so I'm having another go!

    An AD backup is as good as the Tombstone lifetime. By default the TSL of a 2003 forest functional level is 60. So if you haven't done this already you should probably configure a higher value for the TSL. By default Strict Replication
    Consistency is also enabled to prevent DC that have been disconnected for a long time to propagate lingering objects into the AD topology, check to see if you have this enabled. You should use "repadmin" to remove the lingering objects.
    "When a domain controller in your Active Directory environment is disconnected from the replication topology for an extended period of time, all objects that are deleted from AD DS on all other domain controllers might remain on the disconnected
    domain controller. Such objects are called lingering objects. When this domain controller is reconnected to the replication topology, it acts as a source replication partner that has one or more objects that its destination replication partners no longer have.
    Problems occur when these lingering objects on the source domain controller are updated and these updates are sent by replication to the destination domain controllers. A destination domain controller can respond in one of two ways:
    If the destination domain controller has strict replication consistency enabled, it recognizes that it cannot update the object (because the object does not exist), and it locally halts inbound replication of the directory partition from that source
    domain controller.
    If the destination domain controller does not have strict replication consistency enabled, it requests the full replica of the updated object, which introduces a lingering object into the directory."
    Also keep in mind that the Infrastructure Master role handles the cross-domain references and phantoms from the global catalog in its domain. Make sure that you either have all DCs as Global Catalogs or do not place the GC on the DC with the IM role.
    Here are some useful links:
    Determine the tombstone lifetime for the forest
    Event ID 1388 or 1988: A lingering object is detected
    Use Repadmin to remove lingering objects
    Enable strict replication consistency

  • Windows Server 2003 Active Directory Replication Issue

    Dear Friends,
    Few days before my Primary Domain controller was crased, so i restored 1 month old full server image.
    But issue is after restoration replication  between domain controller is not working.
    Error message on DC2: Target Principal Name is incorrect
    Event Log on Restored DC1:
    Event Type: Error
    Event Source: Kerberos
    Event Category: None
    Event ID: 4
    Date:  3/18/2014
    Time:  10:50:00 AM
    User:  N/A
    Computer: ***
    Description:
    The kerberos client received a KRB_AP_ERR_MODIFIED error from the server host/**.domain.com.  The target name used was cifs/dc2. This indicates that the password used to encrypt the kerberos service ticket is different than that on the target server. Commonly,
    this is due to identically named  machine accounts in the target realm (domain.COM), and the client realm.   Please contact your system administrator.
     

    Have  a look:

  • ACS Replication Issue

    Yesterday we had two ACS 4.0 servers installed on Windows 2000 Domain Controllers that were working great. ACS1 was the primary server and replication was configured to send to ACS2. ACS2 replication was configured to receive from ACS1.
    We lost ACS2 yesterday so I installed ACS 4 on a 2003 Domain Controller (ACS3). I installed ACS3, went into network configuration and added ACS1 as an AAA server.
    I then logged onto ACS1 and added ACS3 as an AAA server and configured ACS3 as a replication partner.
    It is not replicating - if I look at the log I get
    ERROR, ACS 'ACS3' has denied replication request
    I do not have the primary as a replication on the secondary.
    I have some screen shots of the configuration from ACS2 and I've duplicated everything I've could (except for name and IP).
    Any ideas on what I can try next?

    I had what seems to be the same issue.
    In my case I have two ACS SE 1113 appliances, but the issue could still be the same with your Windows servers.
    The appliance has two NIC's - I had both of the NIC's connected. Although the appliance only allows you to use the Primary NIC (the bottom one) ACS still detected the Secondary NIC and creates an additional "AAA Server" entry under the "Network Configuration" tab called "self". You should only have one "self" entry in your AAA Server list, not two.
    Unfortunately I couldn't find a way to undo this. So I disconnected the Secondary NIC (the top one) and used the recovery CD to reload both of my ACS devices. Now everything works just fine.

  • Upgraded Domain, DHCP Issues

    Hey
    I have recently upgraded our domain controllers to Windows Server 2012 R2, which was, seemingly, a success. Running dcdiag and forcing a replication between the two domain controllers proceeded with no errors reported, DHCP and DNS is functioning correctly
    This was monitored over the weekend, and all services (AD, DHCP, DNS) and no events were recorded to point towards faults. However, this morning, the DHCP Server Role did not exist on the two domain controllers, and Active Directory had many, many issues,
    which have now been fixed
    I have looked in the Microsoft-Windows-DHCP-Server-Service event logs and cannot find events that point either to the scope being removed or the role removed from the server, and the security audit log does not yield any results. In this circumstance, what
    should I be looking for to find out the cause of the fault?
    -- Matt

    Hi Matt,
    According to your description, do you mean that after you upgraded Domain Controllers, DHCP service was running correctly, but after a couple of days, DHCP role was removed?
    Sounds like someone removed it manually to me.
    Have you enabled DHCP audit logging? If you have, you can view the logs under
    %windir%\System32\Dhcp.
    More information for you:
