Makes sense
it keeps saying that it can't retrieve the user
profile. Also the user's home drive can't map to
client PC machine.
Also makes sense.
the map drive and the profile path as //PDC/homes and
//PDC/profiles. Is that mean, if I am using BDC, it is
failed to find the //PDC/homes and //PDC/profiles?
If your pdc has gone down you will most certainly have a problem
mounting drives/accessing files on that machine, just as when any other
server goes down you can't access services hosted on it. If this is
your goal, you need to find some way to make the pdc/home data highly
available, such as storing them on a seperate server that the users are
then pointed to for the data. There are many ways to go about doing
this, you just need to find the way that works best for your situation.
