I want to decommission a DC and have followed the methods required from microsoft but I am stuck at one place. It is not allowing me to transfer the domain naming master or the schema master to the new DC. I have tried via operations manager as well as via dcpromo to decommission the current DC. But using the operations manager I am getting the below message:
"The transfer of the operations master role cannot be performed because: The requested FSMO operation failed. The current FSMO holder could not be contacted" (Even though the current FSMO holder is the server I am running the Op Manager from)
Also, if I am using the dcpromo then I am getting the below message:
"The directory service was unable to transfer ownership of one or more floating single-master roles to the other servers"
Can anyone help me out? Thanks.
