Description:
The MS DTC Connection Manager is unable to register with RPC to use one of LRPC, TCP/IP, or UDP/IP.
Please ensure that RPC is configured properly. If "ServerTcpPort"
registry key is configured(DWORD value under the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\MSDTC for local DTC instance or under cluster
 hive for clustered DTC instance), please verify if the configured port is valid and the port is not already in use by a different component.

Hi Partner,
Thank you for your post.
From your description, I see that the current issue is you notice Event ID 4358 error (source: Microsoft-Windows-MSDTC) logged in Application log.
Please let me know if I misunderstand anything or you have any additional information. 
Firstly, could you help clarify that what operation you are performing while the issue occur? It would be nice if you can provide a GUI error message if any.
Currently, based on the error message and my research, some incorrect register key about RPC dynamic port resulting in MSDTC behaves unexpectedly might cause such symptom.
If that is the case, let's take the following steps to check our issue.
[Note: As the operation is related to the registry key components, I suggest we backup the entries firstly before performing the steps]
1. Delete all the register keys about RPC dynamic port you inserted manually.
2. Configure the ports via UI.
3. Reboot the server.
Please let me know if there is any update. Thank you for your time.
Best Regards,
Sophia Sun
