On one of my domain controllers I am getting the following events once a day in the Directory Service event log: (in order listed)
Category: Logging/Recovery Event ID: 210 Description: NTDS (796) NTDSA: A full backup is starting. Category: Logging/Recovery Event ID: 220 Description: NTDS (796) NTDSA: Beginning the backup of the file S:\NTDS\ntds.dit (size 24 Mb). Category: Logging/Recovery Event ID: 221 Description: NTDS (796) NTDSA: Ending the backup of the file S:\NTDS\ntds.dit. Category: Logging/Recovery Event ID: 223 Description: NTDS (796) NTDSA: Starting the backup of log files (range T:\NTDS\edb0004C.log - T:\NTDS\edb0004C.log). Category: Logging/Recovery Event ID: 213 Description: NTDS (796) NTDSA: The backup procedure has been successfully completed. This is the only DC that I am getting this Directory Service event. I can't find much info on the event ID's. Any ideas about this event or why they only appear on one of 5 DC's (2 for root, 3 for sub) would be greatly appreciated.
