This object monitors whether the configuration information for a connection or replication group in the local DFS Replication database matches the information received from Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS). This monitor creates a Warning alert if the connection or replication group configuration is not identical in the local database and AD DS.
This object monitors whether the configuration information for a connection or replication group in the local DFS Replication database matches the information received from Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS). This monitor creates a Warning alert if the connection or replication group configuration is not identical in the local database and AD DS. It does so by looking for the presence of DFS Replication Event 5012.
An unhealthy state of this monitor indicates that DFS Replication could not establish a connection with the member. This error can occur for the following reasons:
An administrator recently made a configuration change or created a new replication group. If two replication group members obtain their configuration data from different domain controllers, they may have mismatched configuration data due to AD DS replication latencies.
An administrator altered AD DS permissions.
Wait for configuration changes to replicate with AD DS
DFS Replication will retry this operation, which usually resolves automatically after configuration changes replicate through AD DS.
To poll immediately for configuration changes, open a command prompt window and then type the following command once for each member of the replication group, where <domain> is the domain the server is located in and <server> is the server name: Dfsrdiag PollAD /Member:<domain>\<server>
If this problem persists, verify that AD DS replication is working and that the service is able to reach a domain controller.
Test AD DS connectivity
To test DFS Replication’s ability to communicate with AD DS, open a command prompt window and then type the following command: Dfsrdiag pollad /verbose. The command should report Operation Succeeded. If not, there is a problem communicating with AD DS.
If the problem persists for 8 hours, the DFS Replication service will disable the connection and log DFS Replication Event 5016.
Verification
This monitor automatically resets to a healthy state after the problem is resolved (usually indicated by DFS Replication Event 5004) or the DFS Replication service is restarted.
