I have a W2K3 server that every time an update restart the server, at boot the tcp/ip stack gets corrupted.
This makes the server unable to do any kind of networking, and when i issue an
ipconfig
on a Command Window, the result is empty. to solve this problem i have to issue the following command and restart the server:
netsh int ip reset <logfile>
This is causing a full network outage, because almost all services depends on the Domain Controller. when the server restarts i have to configure again the tcp/ip settings.
Another question regarding this issue is why the clients and Applications do not use the secondary domain controller, that is suposed to take over when the primary one fails?.
here are the FSMO roles assignations, SSCZDC01 is the server that fails>
dsquery server -hasfsmo rid
"CN=SSCZDC02,CN=Servers,CN=Default-First-Site-Name,CN=Sites,CN=Configuration,DC=
XXXXXXXXXX,DC=com"
dsquery server -hasfsmo pdc
"CN=SSCZDC01,CN=Servers,CN=Default-First-Site-Name,CN=Sites,CN=Configuration,DC=
XXXXXXXXXX,DC=com"
dsquery server -hasfsmo name
"CN=SSCZDC01,CN=Servers,CN=Default-First-Site-Name,CN=Sites,CN=Configuration,DC=
XXXXXXXXXX,DC=com"
dsquery server -hasfsmo schema
"CN=SSCZDC01,CN=Servers,CN=Default-First-Site-Name,CN=Sites,CN=Configuration,DC=
XXXXXXXXXX,DC=com"
dsquery server -hasfsmo infr
"CN=SSCZDC02,CN=Servers,CN=Default-First-Site-Name,CN=Sites,CN=Configuration,DC=
enserbic,DC=com"
any insights or comments would be very appreciated, because i'm lost regarding the possible origin of this problem.
thanks very much for your time
