FRS to DFSR Migration and Riverbed RODCs

As I understand it, Riverbed RoDCs are only there to grab session keys from AD in order to optimize SMB traffic. Please correct me if I'm wrong. 
I'm in the middle of trying to migrate from FRS to DFSR for SYSVOL, but when moving from the Start to Prepared state, DFSRMig complains that the Riverbed RoDCs aren't following. 
C:\Users\adminaccountname>dfsrmig /getmigrationstate
The following Domain Controllers are not in sync with Global state ('Prepared'):
Domain Controller (Local Migration State) - DC Type
===================================================
xxx1a-xxx-xx05 ('Start') - Read-Only DC
xxx1a-xxx-xx03 ('Start') - Read-Only DC
xxx1a-xxx-xx04 ('Start') - Read-Only DC
Pretty sure this is entirely out of my control and there might be a mode of operations on the Riverbed side that needs to be raised along with the functional level of the forest and domain, but I'm getting nothing from the Riverbed documentation that I can
get my hands on. I'm waiting to hear from our networking team. 
In the meantime, has anyone had any experience with this?

Hi,
Migration from one stable state to another can take an extended period, especially if some of the domain controllers are read-only. In these cases, migration may not reach a consistent state on all domain controllers for a long time after you change the
global migration state.
For more and detail information, please refer to:

  • FRS to DFSR migration (Child domain)

    Planning on migrating FRS to DFSR for a child domain, I know this is a per domain process.
    It shouldn't matter which domain is migrated first, the child or root. But to doublecheck : The plan is to migrate they child domain and the root domain will take a couple of months before it's prepared. Does it matter? Even though i'm pretty certain it
    doesn't matter because it's a per domain process, but wanted to verify.

    > It shouldn't matter which domain is migrated first, the child or root.
    No, it doesn't.

  • General SYSVOL migration from FRS to DFSR

    Hi all.
    I have a question regarding Sysvol Migration from FRS to DFSR.
    We have migrated all of our Domain Controllers from Server 2003 to Server 2008 R2 about 2 years ago.
    I know that if Server 2003 was in use initially and you upgrade to Server 2008 R2, you need to do a FRS to DFSR migration in order for you Sysvol to make use of DFSR.
    My question is if we are upgrading now to server 2012 R2 would there be a time that this would happen automatically or do we still need to do the sysvol migration before upgrading to server 2012 R2.
    Another question I have is do we need to do the FRS to DFSR migation on all our child domains as well ?
    Many thanks for your time.
    Your answers would be appreciated.
    Kind Regards,
    Shaun

    Hi There.
    Yes that would be great. I would probably use the active directory removal method but I dont know if this would work as its the last domain contoller and it is not replicating with the top level domain at the moment.
    NTDSUTIL would probably need to be used ro list the servers in that domain and remove them and then if I'm correct I would need to remove the domain namig contect with the instructions below.
    Removing Orphaned Domains from Active Directory
    Determine the domain controller that holds the Domain Naming Master Flexible Single Master Operations (FSMO) role. To identify the server holding this role:
    Start the Active Directory Domains and Trusts Microsoft Management Console (MMC) snap-in from the
    Administrative Tools menu.
    Right-click the root node in the left pane titled
    Active Directory Domains and Trusts, and then click Operations Master.
    The domain controller that currently holds this role is identified in the Current Operations Master frame.NOTE: If this changed recently, not all computer may have received this change yet due to replication.
    For more information about FSMO roles, click the following article number to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
    197132 Windows 2000 Active Directory FSMO Roles
    Verify that all servers for the domain have been demoted.
    Click Start, point to Programs, point to
    Accessories, and then click Command Prompt.
    At the command prompt, type: ntdsutil.
    Type: metadata cleanup, and then press ENTER.
    Type: connections, and then press ENTER. This menu is used to connect to the specific server on which the changes will occur. If the currently logged-on user is not a member of the Enterprise Admins group, alternate credentials can be supplied
    by specifying the credentials to use before making the connection. To do so, type:
    set creds domainname username password , and then press ENTER. For a null password, type:
    null for the password parameter.
    Type: connect to server <var>servername</var> (where <var>servername</var> is the name of the domain controller holding the Domain Naming Master FSMO Role), and then press ENTER. You should receive confirmation that the connection is successfully
    established. If an error occurs, verify that the domain controller being used in the connection is available and that the credentials you supplied have administrative permissions on the server.
    Type: quit, and then press ENTER. The Metadata Cleanup menu is displayed.
    Type: select operation target, and then press ENTER.
    Type: list domains, and then press ENTER. A list of domains in the forest is displayed, each with an associated number.
    Type: select domain <var>number</var>, and then press ENTER, where <var>number</var> is the number associated with the domain to be removed.
    Type: quit, and then press ENTER. The Metadata Cleanup menu is displayed.
    Type: remove selected domain, and then press ENTER. You should receive confirmation that the removal was successful. If an error occurs, please refer to the Microsoft Knowledge Base for articles on specific error messages.
    Type: quit at each menu to quit the NTDSUTIL tool. You should receive confirmation that the connection disconnected successfully.
    Thanks again for all your help.

  • Migrated domain replication from FRS to DFSR. Domain query

    Hello,
    I run 3 domain controllers, all on the same LAN; the PDC is on 2008R2 and the others on 2012
    I have today migrated from FRS to DFSR.
    Without going through all the errors that dcdiag is now showing, I have a simple query. When our domain was setup, it was named COMPANY   ie. not COMPANY.LOCAL.    It has all seemed to work OK for ages but in DNS Forward Lookup Zones I see
    the following folders:
    _msdcs.company
    company
    company.company
    In company.company are just the 3 domain controllers. Can I delete this folder?
    Other question at this stage is about DNS forwarders. All LAN PCs point to the 3 x DCs for their DNS servers, and DNS Server is running on all 3 DCs. Should I put my ISPs DNS servers in the forwarders or not, and do I use root hints? (I have 2 ISPs so don't
    know which ISP will be used by any PC as the router load balances)
    many thanks in advance

    Hi,
    Yes, i think you could delete the folder, if the replication is ok.
    You could use your ISPs DNS server as a forwarders.

  • Live Migration and private network

    Is it a best practice to put up a Private Network beetween the nodes in a pool (reserving a few network cards and switch ports for it), to have a dedicated network for the traffic generated e.g. by live migration and/or ocfs2 heartbeat? I was wondering why such setup is generally recommended in other virtualization solutions, but apparently it's not considered strictly necessary in OVM... Why? Are there any docs regarding this? I couldn't find any.
    Thanks!

    Hi Roynor,
    regarding the physical separation beetween management+hypervisor and the guest VMs, it's now implemented and working...
    My next doubt on the list of doubts :-) at this point is:
    I could easily set up ONE MORE dedicated bond, create a Bridge with a private IP on it on each server (e.g. 10.xxx.xxx.xxx), and then create a Private VLAN completely insulated from the rest of the world.
    I'd be putting the physical switch ports where the Private Bonds/Bridges belong to on the same VLAN ID.
    But:
    - How can I be sure that this network WILL be actually used by the relevant traffic? If I'm not wrong, when you set up e.g. a physical RAC cluster, at a certain point you are prompted to choose what network to use for the Heartbeat (and it will be marked as PRIVATE), and what network will be used by clients traffic (PUBLIC).
    In Oracle VM such setting does not exist... Neither during installation, nor in VM Manager, nowhere.
    - Apart from Security, I'm doubting that during heavy VMs migration problems could arise, because if the network gets saturated, there are chances that the OCFS2 heartbeat would be somehow "lost", therefore messing up HA etc. This is at least the reason why in a RAC setup a private network is highly recommended.
    - I finally found that doc you mention from IBM (thanks for pointing it out!) but my opinion is that THEIR INTENTION was to separate the traffic at the same way I'd like to, but there is simply NO PROOF that such setup would work... They do not mention where you can specify what traffic you want to be on what network...
    This is a very important point... I'm wondering why this lack of information.
    Thanks for your feedback, btw

  • Migration and DVD/CD Sharing Update" (1.1)

    I recently installed the "Migration and DVD/CD Sharing Update" (1.1)" update using the Software Update application on 10/19/08. The installation went fine with no errors or apparent problems.
    I noticed yesterday that when I adjust the brightness up or down on my display ( I have an original 15" Apple Studio Display) the graphic that used to appear showing the brightness level no longer appears but the brightness does change. Also, I have my Epson USB printer connected to one of the USB ports in the monitor and it no longer appears in my Printer list and now I can not print.
    When I go into the System Profiler, click on Hardware Graphics/Display it gives me the information for the Display correctly but at the last line it shows " Display: Status: No display connected". When I click on Hardware USB it just shows a generic description USB Bus with no other information included for the monitor or the printer (printer is attached to USB Hub in the monitor}. When I click on Hardware Printers I get "No information found."
    I also used to be able to use the power button on my monitor to turn on the computer and display at the same time but that no longer works.
    I have tried Repairing Permissions and also the Pram/NVram reset to no avail.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks,
    Bill

    After changing cables, swapping ports, running Applejack AUTO in deep clean mode, booting up with my hard drive that had not been updated with the "Migration and DVD/CD Sharing Update" (1.1)" and finally the Tiger Retail boot installation DVD, I finally gave up without solving the problem and shut down the computer.
    After 2 more cups of coffee, I realized there was 1 thing I totally forgot to do. I remembered that I had not unplugged the computer from the outlet and held the reset button located near the battery on the motherboard.
    You guessed it, everything is now working fine.
    The only thing I can not figure out is why this happened after running the "Migration and DVD/CD Sharing Update" (1.1)". Go figure.

  • Migration and DVD/CD Sharing Update Problem

    Hi, my Mac OS 10.4.11 has a software update on 10-19-2008. It installed the update Migration and DVD/CD Sharing Update, since then, my sharing panel stopped working, I can`t set any option of Services tab and my Firewall tab does not open, it is gray and I can`t click on it. Just Internet tab work now. How can I fix that? Someone had this same problem?

  • Migration and DVD/CD Sharing Update version 1.1

    I have an original Air and older Intel iMac and Remote Install utility version 1.0
    I see there is a new Migration and DVD/CD Sharing Update version 1.1
    The details of this update states:
    Products Affected
    MacBook (13-inch, Aluminum, Late 2008), MacBook Pro (15-inch, Late 2008)
    So I am concerned about whether I should proceed to install this on my iMac to update the Remote Install capability since none of my hardware is specifically mentioned.

    Switch900, The basic process works very well. The basic instructions are at:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1131
    I tested since I did the recent update (even though my version is still showing version 1.0) and it is working properly. However someone tipped me off to go to:
    http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/migrationanddvdcdsharingupdate.html
    to get the update again (without getting it via Software Update) and in his case, that gave him version 1.1 I have yet to do that and will need to test again once I have done that.
    But basically you install this software on your MAC or PC that has a DVD drive, load a disc containing software that you want to install on your Air, in that other MAC or PC and then get to it from the Air and install the software over your local network.

    I want to restore the email from time capsule.  After migration and it shows successful, but, I still cannot find the email data.  Pls adv

    The missing file thing happens if the file is no longer where iTunes expects to find it. Possible causes are that you or some third party tool has moved, renamed or deleted the file, or that the drive it lives on has had a change of drive letter. It is also possible that iTunes has changed from expecting the files to be in the pre-iTunes 9 layout to post-iTunes 9 layout,or vice-versa, and so is looking in slightly the wrong place.
    At guess you've used a different profile name. Files inside the media folder have survied the transfer, but those outside are expected to be on the same absolute file paths, but no longer are.
    Select a track with an exclamation mark, use Ctrl-I to get info, then cancel when asked to try to locate the track. Look on the summary tab for the location that iTunes thinks the file should be. Now take a look around your hard drive(s). Hopefully you can locate the track in question. If a section of your library has simply been moved, or a drive letter has changed, it should be possible to reverse the actions.
    Alternatively, as long as you can find a location holding the missing files, then you should be able to use my FindTracks script to reconnect them to iTunes.
