Sysvol Replication

hi

i have couple of windows 2012 domain controllers have stopped replicating sysvol folders.

i believe issue dc2 missing of newer policies, despite having lot more folders listed (these old policies have been removed).

the error message listed says

‘the dfs replication service stopped replication on volume c:. occurs when dfsr jet database not shut down cleanly , auto recovery disabled. resolve issue, files in affected replicated folders, , use resumereplication wmi method resume replication.’

i have run resumereplication says successful. message have exceeded maximum offline time of 60 days increase with

‘the dfs replication service stopped replication on folder following local path: c:\windows\sysvol\domain. server has been disconnected other partners 85 days, longer time allowed maxofflinetimeindays parameter (60). dfs replication considers data in folder stale, , server not replicate folder until error corrected.

 

to resume replication of folder, use dfs management snap-in remove server replication group, , add group. causes server perform initial synchronization task, replaces stale data fresh data other members of replication group. ‘

i tried remove server in dfs management snap-in unable find option ran command increase maximum offline time

wmic.exe /namespace:\\root\microsoftdfs path dfsrmachineconfig set maxofflinetimeindays=120

i restart dfsr service , things positive in event viewer until error…

the dfs replication service stopped replication on replicated folder @ local path c:\windows\sysvol\domain.

 

additional information:

error: 9073 (content set initialization pending journal wrap task resume journal read)

running dcdiag appears fine exception of reporting there errors in event log.

can assist suggestions on how recover without need rebuild server. active directory seems replicating without issue, it’s sysvol share.

many thanks
