IF I were troubleshooting this, I'd remove the bridgehead designations and let everything go over any available server, then wait for the problem to go away. After that, examine your bridgehead designations closely again. You will likely find out that the DC in LEX site that you've designated as the bridgehead for that site does NOT have a Connection to a DC that holds a copy of the DC=coopcam,DC=com partition. Wherever I've seen this error, it's more likely due to the fact that the Domain Naming Master does not have a connection(link) to the LEX Bridgehead.

Subject: [ActiveDir] NTDS KCC error
All, We're getting these errors on our domain controllers. I see Q271997 says that it's reported if a non-preferred bridgehead was used. What did we do to cause this and what's the recommended best fix? Explicit bridgeheads to support inter-site replication to and from site CN=LEX,CN=Sites,CN=Configuration,DC=coopcam,DC=com over transport CN=IP,CN=Inter-Site Transports,CN=Sites,CN=Configuration,DC=coopcam,DC=com have been selected, but none of these servers can replicate the partition DC=coopcam,DC=com. Please use the Active Directory Sites and Services snap-in to do the following: 1. Configure servers that can support replication of the given partition as preferred bridgeheads for this transport. You can do this by modifying the corresponding server objects. 2. Ensure the server objects have an address for this transport. For example, servers performing replication over the SMTP transport must have a mailAddress attribute. This attribute is normally configured automatically after the IIS/SMTP service is installed. In the meantime the KCC will consider all servers in this site as possible bridgeheads for this partition. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This e-mail is confidential, may contain proprietary information of the Cooper Cameron Corporation and its operating Divisions and may be confidential or privileged.
