Role Transfer. yes and it is recommended that the roles should be seized and transferred to a healthy DC They way to transfer is as follows 1. On any domain controller, click Start, click Run, type Ntdsutil in the Open box, and then click OK. C:\WINDOWS>ntdsutil ntdsutil: 1. Type roles, and then press ENTER. ntdsutil: roles fsmo maintenance: Note: To see a list of available commands at any of the prompts in the Ntdsutil tool, type ?, and then press ENTER. 1. Type connections, and then press ENTER. fsmo maintenance: connections server connections: 1. Type connect to server <servername>, where <servername> is the name of the server you want to use, and then press ENTER. server connections: connect to server server100 Binding to server100 ... Connected to server100 using credentials of locally logged on user. server connections: 1. At the server connections: prompt, type q, and then press ENTER again. server connections: q fsmo maintenance: 1. Type seize <role>, where <role> is the role you want to seize. For example, to seize the RID Master role, you would type seize rid master: Options are: Seize domain naming master Seize infrastructure master Seize PDC Seize RID master Seize schema master 1. You will receive a warning window asking if you want to perform the seize. Click on Yes. fsmo maintenance: Seize infrastructure master Attempting safe transfer of infrastructure FSMO before seizure. ldap_modify_sW error 0x34(52 (Unavailable). Ldap extended error message is 000020AF: SvcErr: DSID-03210300, problem 5002 (UNAVAILABLE) , data 1722 Win32 error returned is 0x20af(The requested FSMO operation failed. The current FSMO holde r could not be contacted.) ) Depending on the error code this may indicate a connection, ldap, or role transfer error. Transfer of infrastructure FSMO failed, proceeding with seizure ... Server "server100" knows about 5 roles Schema - CN=NTDS Settings,CN=SERVER200,CN=Servers,CN=Default-First-Site-Name,CN=Sites,CN=Configuration,DC=dpetri,DC=net Domain - CN=NTDS Settings,CN=SERVER100,CN=Servers,CN=Default-First-Site-Name,CN=Sites,CN=Configuration,DC=dpetri,DC=net PDC - CN=NTDS Settings,CN=SERVER100,CN=Servers,CN=Default-First-Site-Name,CN=Sites,CN=Configuration,DC=dpetri,DC=net RID - CN=NTDS Settings,CN=SERVER200,CN=Servers,CN=Default-First-Site-Name,CN=Sites,CN=Configuration,DC=dpetri,DC=net Infrastructure - CN=NTDS Settings,CN=SERVER100,CN=Servers,CN=Default-First-Site-Name,CN=Sites,CN=Configuration,DC=dpetri,DC=net fsmo maintenance: Note: All five roles need to be in the forest. If the first domain controller is out of the forest then seize all roles. Determine which roles are to be on which remaining domain controllers so that all five roles are not on only one server. 1. Repeat steps 6 and 7 until you've seized all the required FSMO roles. 2. After you seize or transfer the roles, type q, and then press ENTER until you quit the Ntdsutil tool. Note: Do not put the Infrastructure Master (IM) role on the same domain controller as the Global Catalog server. If the Infrastructure Master runs on a GC server it will stop updating object information because it does not contain any references to objects that it does not hold. This is because a GC server holds a partial replica of every object in the forest
