Error message: "Windows cannot create the object because the Directory Service was unable to allocate a relative identifier

Question

Dear Team,

Can't create new user from active directory (AD) server. When creating user, giving this error message.

Error message: "Windows cannot create the object because the Directory Service was unable to allocate a relative identifier

Answer 1

Hi

Looks like the DC that holds your RID Master role is offline or unreachable.

If you open an admin commant prompt on a functioning Domain Controller and run "netdom query fsmo", what server does the RID Master reside on? Is it online?

If offline, you may need to seize the role and relocate to a working Domain Controller.

Hope this helps,

Thanks
