Dear All,
Kindly note that I have an issue, when I create new Group policy It didn't replicate to another Domain controllers, and there is an Event log warning on the PDC as Below :
The File Replication Service is having trouble enabling replication from HALDC04 to HALDC05 for c:\windows\sysvol\domain using the DNS name FRS will keep retrying.
Following are some of the reasons you would see this warning.
[1] FRS can not correctly resolve the DNS name HALDC04 from this computer.
[2] FRS is not running on HALDC04
[3] The topology information in the Active Directory Domain Services for this replica has not yet replicated to all the Domain Controllers.
This event log message will appear once per connection, After the problem is fixed you will see another event log message indicating that the connection has been established.
Event ID # 13508

You should check if the DNS record HALDC04.halwani.local can be resolved using
nslookupcommand.Check also the AD and AD replication health by running the following commands on all domain controllers:
repadmin /showrepldcdiag

There are warning or error events within the last 24 hours after the SYSVOL has been shared. Failing SYSVOL replication problems may cause Group Policy problems. ......................... HALDC05 passed test FrsEvent -

It seems that you have a issue on FRS replication.
Try to apply the procedure for nonauthoritative restore for FRS replication as mentioned in the article below :
Use the BurFlags registry key to reinitialize File Replication Service
For your information FRS replication is not supported by Microsoft , when you fix the replication issue you should to migrate it to DFS if the domain functional level is Windows 2008 or higher.

2024-03-20T12:34:52.5266667+00:00 Dear Thameur ,
kindly note that after a nonauthoritative restore problem still exist.
as below :- Event ID 13553 The File Replication Service successfully added this computer to the following replica set: "DOMAIN SYSTEM VOLUME (SYSVOL SHARE)"
Information related to this event is shown below:
Computer DNS name is "HALDC05.halwani.local"
Replica set member name is "HALDC05"
Replica set root path is "c:\windows\sysvol\domain"
Replica staging directory path is "c:\windows\sysvol\staging\domain"
Replica working directory path is "c:\windows\ntfrs\jet"
- Event ID : 13554
The File Replication Service successfully added the connections shown below to the replica set:
"DOMAIN SYSTEM VOLUME (SYSVOL SHARE)" Inbound from "HALDC04.halwani.local"Outbound to "HALDC04.halwani.local"
Should I do Authoritative restore?
or make nonauthoritative restore for all DCS. -

2024-03-20T13:54:44.6533333+00:00 Did you network flows ?
It may be a network or dns issue as mentioned in event viewer.
How many DC with this error ?

You can try nonauthoritative restore if you still have same issue you can launch an authoritative restore.

Anonymous2024-03-07T02:48:38.2866667+00:00 Hello Islam Khaled,
Thank you for posting in Q&A forum.
1.How many DCs are there in the domain?
Please check AD replication firstly. Run commands below on PDC.repadmin /showrepl >C:\rep1.txt
repadmin /replsum >C:\rep2.txt
repadmin /showrepl * /csv >c:\repsum.csv
2.Please check if HALDC04 can resolve HALDC05.halwani.local on HALDC04.
Please check if HALDC05 can resolve HALDC04.halwani.local on HALDC05.3.Please check if is DFSR service is running on HALDC04.halwani.local.
If some of the DCs are not in the same site, then maybe there is replication latency.
If AD replication is OK between all the DCs and each DNS can resolve each FQDN, please check SYSVOl replication (or new Group policy) on another Domain controllers after you created new Group policy three hours later.
I hope the information above is helpful.
If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to let us know.
Best Regards,
Daisy Zhou
