Domain Controller Replication Issues

If replication errors are reported by a domain controller that is attempting replication with a domain controller that has been built in a staging site and is currently offline awaiting its deployment in the final production site a remote site such as a branch office you can account for those replication errors.

Domain controller replication issues. It displays inbound replication requests that the domain controller needs to issue to become consistent with its source replication partners. The rest of this topic explains tools and a general methodology to fix active directory replication errors. Using the force flag forces domain controller location rather than using the cache. Below i ll show you the step by step process with plenty of examples and the results.

You can also specify options such as gc or pdc to locate a global catalog or a primary domain controller emulator. For example domain name system dns problems networking issues or security problems can all cause active directory replication to fail. While having the command prompt window open run dcdiag tool and examine the output for possible error. Le reste de cette rubrique décrit les outils et une méthodologie générale pour résoudre les erreurs de réplication active directory.

Frequently but not limited to the upstream servers have stopped replication because of a dirty shutdown event id 2213. Verify that the dfs replication service is listed with the values of started in the status column and automatic in the startup type column. Open up a command prompt and type repadmin replsum to get a status of replication between domain controllers. Running a dcdiag gives the following errors.

Active directory replication is a critical service that keeps changes synchronized with other domain controllers in the forest. In my situation all domain controllers are meshed with replication connections to each other. Domain controllers without sysvol shared can t replicate inbound because of upstream source domain controllers being in an error state. To avoid separating a domain controller from the replication topology for extended periods which causes continuous errors until the domain controller is reconnected consider.

B file replication service latency a file created on another domain controller has not replicated to the current domain controller. Thus dsgetdc domain name tries to find the domain controller for the domain. The third command is repadmin showrepl displays the replication status when the specified domain controller last attempted to implement inbound replication of active directory partitions. A name resolution network connectivity to the current domain controller.

Problems with replication can cause authentication failures and issues accessing network resources files printers applications. An upstream domain controller s dfs replication service is in an error state.
