You may need to do the following http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290762
On the server with the issue setting the global BurFlags registry key to D2 should tell that server to recreate its replica from any available source (the other server that is working) In the rare case that all replicas are in the same state you then need to use the value of D4 on one server to set it to be authorative then use the D2 setting on the other servers to get them to update from that one. I've only had to do this once so I'm far from an expert in the area When I did it, it made copies of the old data before recreating the new replica so watch out for disk space issues Regards, Phil Garven -----Original Message----- From: John Aldrich [mailto:jaldr...@blueridgecarpet.com] Sent: Thursday, April 07, 2011 10:26 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: Need help with DFS Well, it's saying that there's an error in the "jrnl_wrap" for NTFRS. I've got a call in to a consultant to help with this, but he's not going to be available until about 2:30. :-( That being said, one of the servers was down for awhile Tuesday night, which might also have contributed to the problem (power outage...the server was shut down automatically by the PowerChute software.) Realistically, I think it was likely the "unsafe" shutdown that occurred when I tried to force the second server to come back up before the UPS was ready.
