Ok... Can someone tell me what happens if I do the D2 and it doesn't work? Am I 
where I am right now, or will the current sysvol share be removed? What about 
the D4? 

How long do these take in a very small domain?

Will a system state/AD restore get me back to where I am now?

I am trying to give the business their options/risks since this problem has 
been going on long before I arrived on the scene...

Thanks
Aaron

If you only have a single DC then youshould utilize D4 for an authoritative 
restore as it's own contents arethe valid contents and there is no where else 
to pull from.  You may needto restart FRS or possibly run a D2 on the new DC to 
get FRS replicating onthat server as well.  Check out downloading Sonar.exe for 
viewing FRSstats so that you can see if your backlogged files start replicating 
betweenthe DC's once you do this.  FRSdiag is also useful if you need 
totroubleshoot as well.

Subject: [ActiveDir] NTFRS -Journal Wrap Errors  
  

Hi-  

   

I am new to the list and was hoping someone could help with an uglysituation I 
was brought in to clean up:  

   

I am working with a W2K native mode domain with only ONE active 
domaincontroller (W2K SP4). There is a second DC, but it was brought on-line 
afterthe journal wrap errors (Event 13568 ) began and has never replicated 
sysvol(doesn't even exist on the box). It appears AD and such are working with 
thenew DC... just not NTFRS.   

   

The original DC does have sysvol and appears to be working to 
authenticateclients as normal. I need to get the journal wrap errors resolved 
so I canbring the second DC on-line, transfer FSMO roles and get the old box 
rebuiltsince it doesn't even have redundant drives - Yikes!   

   

Everything I have read says to do a D2 non-authoritative restore, butsince I 
only have the one DC, where would it restore from? I have run an NTbackup of 
c:\ and system state to try and get some comfort, but still am afraidof making 
matters worse.   

   

Any suggestions/recommendations would be very much appreciated...Iwould like to 
get this cleaned up this week!  

   

Thanks so much,  

Aaron
