    Domain replication problem

    Hello,

    I have a replication problem with my 2 domain controllers. Here is the dcdiag result:

    Also the following error are present in the Primary Domain Controller Event Viewer:

    Event Type: Error
    Event Source: NTDS Replication
    Event Category: Replication
    Event ID: 1864
    Date: 12/6/2011
    Time: 6:03:53 PM
    User: NT AUTHORITY\ANONYMOUS LOGON
    Computer: PDC
    Description:
    This is the replication status for the following directory partition on the local domain controller.

    Directory partition:
    CN=Schema,CN=Configuration,DC=fiu,DC=local

    The local domain controller has not recently received replication information from a number of domain controllers. The count of domain controllers is shown, divided into the following intervals.

    More than 24 hours:
    1
    More than a week:
    1
    More than one month:
    1
    More than two months:
    1
    More than a tombstone lifetime:
    1
    Tombstone lifetime (days):
    60
    Domain controllers that do not replicate in a timely manner may encounter errors. It may miss password changes and be unable to authenticate. A DC that has not replicated in a tombstone lifetime may have missed the deletion of some objects, and may be automatically blocked from future replication until it is reconciled.

    To identify the domain controllers by name, install the support tools included on the installation CD and run dcdiag.exe.
    You can also use the support tool repadmin.exe to display the replication latencies of the domain controllers in the forest. The command is "repadmin /showvector /latency <partition-dn>".

    Event Type: Warning
    Event Source: NTDS Replication
    Event Category: Replication
    Event ID: 2092
    Date: 12/6/2011
    Time: 6:03:53 PM
    User: NT AUTHORITY\ANONYMOUS LOGON
    Computer: PDC
    Description:

    This server is the owner of the following FSMO role, but does not consider it valid. For the partition which contains the FSMO, this server has not replicated successfully with any of its partners since this server has been restarted. Replication errors are preventing validation of this role.

    Operations which require contacting a FSMO operation master will fail until this condition is corrected.

    FSMO Role: CN=Schema,CN=Configuration,DC=fiu,DC=local

    User Action:

    1. Initial synchronization is the first early replications done by a system as it is starting. A failure to initially synchronize may explain why a FSMO role cannot be validated. This process is explained in KB article 305476.
    2. This server has one or more replication partners, and replication is failing for all of these partners. Use the command repadmin /showrepl to display the replication errors. Correct the error in question. For example there maybe problems with IP connectivity, DNS name resolution, or security authentication that are preventing successful replication.
    3. In the rare event that all replication partners being down is an expected occurance, perhaps because of maintenance or a disaster recovery, you can force the role to be validated. This can be done by using NTDSUTIL.EXE to seize the role to the same server. This may be done using the steps provided in KB articles 255504 and 324801 on http://support.microsoft.com.

    The following operations may be impacted:
    Schema: You will no longer be able to modify the schema for this forest.
    Domain Naming: You will no longer be able to add or remove domains from this forest.
    PDC: You will no longer be able to perform primary domain controller operations, such as Group Policy updates and password resets for non-Active Directory accounts.
    RID: You will not be able to allocation new security identifiers for new user accounts, computer accounts or security groups.
    Infrastructure: Cross-domain name references, such as universal group memberships, will not be updated properly if their target object is moved or renamed.

    Event Type: Error
    Event Source: NTDS Replication
    Event Category: DS RPC Client
    Event ID: 2087
    Date: 12/6/2011
    Time: 5:05:25 PM
    User: NT AUTHORITY\ANONYMOUS LOGON
    Computer: PDC
    Description:
    Active Directory could not resolve the following DNS host name of the source domain controller to an IP address. This error prevents additions, deletions and changes in Active Directory from replicating between one or more domain controllers in the forest. Security groups, group policy, users and computers and their passwords will be inconsistent between domain controllers until this error is resolved, potentially affecting logon authentication and access to network resources.

    Source domain controller:
    FILEServer
    Failing DNS host name:
    fc7f64a9-6972-407a-b599-ddcf6dcb831f._msdcs.fiu.local

    NOTE: By default, only up to 10 DNS failures are shown for any given 12 hour period, even if more than 10 failures occur. To log all individual failure events, set the following diagnostics registry value to 1:

    Registry Path:
    HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\NTDS\Diagnostics\22 DS RPC Client

    User Action:

    1) If the source domain controller is no longer functioning or its operating system has been reinstalled with a different computer name or NTDSDSA object GUID, remove the source domain controller's metadata with ntdsutil.exe, using the steps outlined in MSKB article 216498.

    2) Confirm that the source domain controller is running Active directory and is accessible on the network by typing "net view \\<source DC name>" or "ping <source DC name>".

    3) Verify that the source domain controller is using a valid DNS server for DNS services, and that the source domain controller's host record and CNAME record are correctly registered, using the DNS Enhanced version of DCDIAG.EXE available on http://www.microsoft.com/dns

    dcdiag /test:dns

    4) Verify that that this destination domain controller is using a valid DNS server for DNS services, by running the DNS Enhanced version of DCDIAG.EXE command on the console of the destination domain controller, as follows:

    dcdiag /test:dns

    5) For further analysis of DNS error failures see KB 824449:
    http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=824449

    Additional Data
    Error value:
    11004 The requested name is valid, but no data of the requested type was found.

    What can I do to resolve this problems?

    Re: Domain replication problem

    I think that you need to grant "NT Authority\System" full control of the sysvol share on DC2 (BDC)? Can you confirm the permissions on the SBS sysvol folder match those on the BDC? I believe they should match identically, so I would mirror them on the BDC if they are not the same.

    Re: Domain replication problem

    Hi,
    Yes they match and are full rights. I noticed now that every one hour in the primary domain controller event viewer there is only 1 error repeating:

    Event Type: Error
    Event Source: NTDS Replication
    Event Category: Replication
    Event ID: 2042
    Date: 12/7/2011
    Time: 9:55:34 PM
    User: NT AUTHORITY\ANONYMOUS LOGON
    Computer: PDC
    Description:
    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 machine's views of deleted objects may now be different. The source machine may still have copies of objects that have been deleted (and garbage collected) on this machine. If they were allowed to replicate, the source machine might return objects which have already been deleted.
    Time of last successful replication:
    2010-11-18 12:38:25
    Invocation ID of source:
    043df6c8-f6b8-043d-0100-000000000000
    Name of source:
    fc7f64a9-6972-407a-b599-ddcf6dcb831f._msdcs.fiu.local
    Tombstone lifetime (days):
    60

    The replication operation has failed.

    User Action:

    Determine which of the two machines was disconnected from the forest and is now out of date. You have three options:

    1. Demote or reinstall the machine(s) that were disconnected.
    2. Use the "repadmin /removelingeringobjects" tool to remove inconsistent deleted objects and then resume replication.
    3. Resume replication. Inconsistent deleted objects may be introduced. You can continue replication by using the following registry key. Once the systems replicate once, it is recommended that you remove the key to reinstate the protection.
    Registry Key:
    HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\NTDS\Parameters\Allow Replication With Divergent and Corrupt Partner
