Subject: [ActiveDir] Unable to demote Additional DC
Hello Folks,
I am
trying to demote an Additional Domain Controller and when I do that thru DCPRMO,
I get this error;
The operation failed because:
The Directory Service was unable to
transfer the domain wide FSMO roles (PDC and
Rid master) to another Domain Controller in this
domain. A possible cause may
that no other servers are on line to receive the FSMO, or the Directory
Service
has a record of a
server that no longer exists.
"The DSA object could not be found. "
All the servers are online and from this machine, I can ping to the PDC Emulator too. How do I resolve this issue?? Can any one point to some KB articles for explanation?
Regards,
Mohammed
