We have 3 domain controllers in server 2012. Replication is failing miserably.

Repadmin /replsummary

dc1 rpc server not available

dc 2 rpc server not available

dc 3 "Insufficient attributes were given to create an object"

I wll be coming with dcdiag output soon.

But one thing still stuck in my mind is that during dcdiag outputs were this dc is not advertising as time servr when the time configuration is correct on pdc and dc's

repadmin /replsummary

  • has this been working and broke recently? looking at your replsummary there were only 10 fails, meaning it's working not too long before you ran repadmin. If you didn't make any changes on DCs, and have done health checks other than replication, then the only thing left is network. Make sure you have connectivity among DCs. portqryUI pre-defined domain test is a good tool for this purpose.

First 2 DC seems to be a network issue, are you able to connect the DC Check the role server (PDC) first and resolve the issue then check other 2 DC's to fix the replication issues

If DC's are not replicated more then tombstone time period the need a rebuild to resolve the issue

  • There seems to be issue with lingering objects. strange problem occurred with one of the users desktop, if he paste files from local users to his domain account desktop at the time of logoff all files goes missing

  • @jacksh Unless your DC has been offline for a very long time (>tombstone time), or you manually change time, you shouldn't have lingering objects. It will also give you very specific error messages. I'd rule that out.

  • the issue has been resolved found multiple network adapters configured with ip address on one of the dc

  • To help others- strange problem occurred with one of the users desktop, if he paste files from local users to his domain account desktop at the time of logoff all files goes missing. has been fixed by removing the users from the members of domain guests.
