I have two DCs(Windows 2012 server) in different locations of the same domain, they are connected through permanent VPN connection,both with DNS server installed.
I recently found out that their replications failed, and "repamin /syncall
" command only gives RPC error, unless I reboot the PDC,they get back to work again.
I have tested this situation for quite several times when I found the replication failure every morning when I came to my office.
Both DNS servers seem to work perfectly with "nslookup
" and "ping" command, for I set the primary DNS server to their counterpart and the secondary to itself.
and I am also sure that the RPC service is running normally on both DCs. I've also done some diagnosis by "DCDIAG /TEST:DNS /V /E /F:<filename.log>
" which is described in Microsoft Article:
Though some DNS test failed,but it does not explain why everything goes normally after reboot. and I am not quite sure about the correct DNS configuration for both DCs in my situation, can someone give a simple and clear principle?
Don't know how comes this situation, can someone help?
