Diane did this server have any FSMOs you had to move or was it a Global Catalog Server?

The other servers were OK. We simply demoted the server, waited for replication so that the server was removed from AD and re-promoted the server. At this point it got a new copy of the database and problem solved. Not that this would work for everyone due to band width, etc, but seemed to work for us.

If so, can it be fixed with anything other than restoring from backup?
