The Domain Naming Master Fsmo Role Could Not Be Reached

this override anything in the old DCs? it is suggesting to "Create Default Application Directory Partitions" and those were intriduced in w2k3 as far as I know so should be pretty safe to carry out? Gueorgui Dimov, Aug 15, 2008 #1 Advertisements Avinash Guest The error 9906 really means as follows: net helpmsg 9906 The application directory partition operation failed. The domain controller hold ing the domain naming master role is down or unable to service the request or is not running Windows Server 2003. Ensure the FSMO role holder is up and running. Also, you can try Log on as Enterprise Admin and do the same. As far as creating the forest-wide and domain-wide DNS directory partition is concerned take help of the Microsoft Technical Support to ensure nothing is going to overwritten.

Often, I am seeing error 9906 (Event ID 4512) pop up in the logs. The body of the message error is: The DNS server was unable to create the built-in directory partition ForestDnsZones.sub.domain.com.The error was 9906. Based on what I've read so far people seem to indicate that it is an issue with the server not being able to find the FSMO role holder. However, this doesn't seem to be the case with my scenario as all the domain controllers pass all the tests successfully. I haven't seen any glaring reasons for this but what I've been able to find out is an old value in the Application Partition using ADSIEdit. Running dcdiag /test:crossrefvalidation, the results are: Starting test: CrossRefValidation This cross-ref has a non-standard dNSRoot attribute. Cross-ref DN: CN=0e4820e2-35e2-4fcf-bae9-789ca2003a6b,CN=Partitions,CN=Configuration,DC=sub,DC=domain,DC=com nCName attribute (Partition name): DC=ForestDnsZones,DC=sub,DC=domain,DC=com Bad dNSRoot attribute: xxxx.xxxxx.sub.domain.com Check with your network administrator to make sure this dNSRoot attribute is correct, and if not please change the attribute to the value below. dNSRoot should be: ForestDnsZones.sub.domain.com It appears this partition (DC=ForestDnsZones,DC=sub,DC=domain,DC=com) failed to get completely created. This cross-ref (CN=0e4820e2-35e2-4fcf-bae9-789ca2003a6b,CN=Partitions,CN=Configuration,DC=sub,DC=domain,DC=com) is dead and should be removed from the directory. ......................... ForestDnsZones failed test CrossRefValidation I suspect that the xxxxx.xxxxx.sub.domain.com is an entry from an old domain that one of the previous admins created. I looked at this thread and looked at the Configuration Partition using ADSIEdit and indeed I can see that the dnsRoot value for partition DC=ForestDnsZones,DC=sub,DC=domain,DC=c
