Hi All,
I have joined a samba4 instance to en existing W2k8 AD domain as an
additional domain controller.
When I do
samba-tool dbcheck
I get (example) :
ERROR: wrong instanceType 4 on CN=INVIEW-DC2,OU=Domain
Controllers,DC=inview,DC=local, should be 0
Not changing instanceType from 4 to 0 on CN=INVIEW-DC2,OU=Domain
Controllers,DC=inview,DC=local
This happens for 644 out of 655 of the objects in directory. I have
attempted to fix one or two less important objects and the error does
not appear again.
Before I go ahead and fix them all, I want to find out whether doing
this would have any unwanted ramifications?
Can anyone explain what causes these errors and if fixing them might
break something?
That's a very interesting question. 0 seems the wrong value, if you are
a read-write DC.
I suspect we are getting the domain join stuff wrong, so we then trigger
this incorrectly in dbcheck.

Hi Andrew,
For info:
I did some further comparisons with the test environment and found that
the production environment was set to Windows 2000 Domain & Windows 2000
Forest functional levels. I changed the the domain functional level to
windows 2003 (which the test environment was on), and re-added the
additional domain controller.
I then got no errors in the samba-tool dbcheck and this also seemed to
fix another problem with replication I was experiencing.
Best regards
Chris
