Microsoft Windows Server DNS ADI LDAP Time out

Microsoft.Windows.Server.DNS.ADI.LDAPTimeout (Rule)

Alert generating rule for Active Directory Integration.

Knowledge Base article:

Summary

You can configure the DNS Server service to use Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) to store zone data. This makes it possible for the DNS server to rely on directory replication, which enhances security, reliability, and ease of administration.

Causes

The DNS server timed out attempting an Active Directory service operation.

Resolutions

Troubleshoot AD DS and retry adding the zone

AD DS is not responding to requests from the DNS Server service. The DNS Server service relies on Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) to store and retrieve information for AD DS-integrated zones. Ensure that AD DS is functioning properly, troubleshoot any problems, and then try to create the zone again.

To perform this procedure, you must have membership in Administrators, or you must have been delegated the appropriate authority.

Create the zone after resolving any problems with AD DS.

To create a zone:

1.On the DNS server, start Server Manager. To start Server Manager, click Start, click Administrative Tools, and then click Server Manager.

2.In the console tree, expand Roles, expand DNS Server, and then expand DNS.

3.Expand the DNS server, right-click the zone folder for the type of zone that you want to add, and then click New Zone to open the New Zone Wizard.

4.Follow the instructions in the wizard to create the zone.
