    Please run;

    Dcdiag /v /c /d /e /s:%computername% >C:\dcdiag.log (run on PDC emulator)
    repadmin /showrepl >C:\repl.txt (run on any domain controller)
    ipconfig /all > C:\%computername%.txt (run on EVERY domain controller)

    Also check the domain controller System and Replication (DFS or FRS) event logs for errors since last boot. Post the Event Source and Event IDs of any found. (no evtx files)

    then put unzipped text files up on OneDrive and share a link.

    Ok, so I found it in other forum. I'm not seeing that problem. LocatorCheck passes, but I do see DNS delegation for the domain idmc.coop.idmc.coop. is broken (double domain) which may be an easy fix.

    May be some intermitant network issue. From the files you put up.

          Starting test: LocatorCheck
             GC Name: \\IDMCAD.idmc.coop
             Locator Flags: 0xe00033fd
             PDC Name: \\IDMCAD.idmc.coop
             Locator Flags: 0xe00033fd
             Time Server Name: \\IDMCAD.idmc.coop
             Locator Flags: 0xe00033fd
             Preferred Time Server Name: \\IDMCAD.idmc.coop
             Locator Flags: 0xe00033fd
             KDC Name: \\IDMCAD.idmc.coop
             Locator Flags: 0xe00033fd
             ......................... idmc.coop passed test LocatorCheck
    
    

    Another minor one is each domain controller at a minimum should have own static ip address listed for DNS. The two (of four) files are missing server's own static ip address.
