Replication issues with netlogon and sysvol folders.

Hello, during our server migration from a Windows Server 2016 to Windows Server 2022 the sysvol and netlogon folders haven't replicated. I am able to see them on the old Windows Server 2016 server. I am receiving an error in the event viewer 4012. I have copied and pasted the error below.

The DFS Replication service stopped replication on the folder with the following local path: C:\windows\SYSVOL\domain. This server has been disconnected from other partners for 158 days, which is longer than the time allowed by the MaxOfflineTimeInDays parameter (60). DFS Replication considers the data in this folder to be stale, and this server will not replicate the folder until this error is corrected.

To resume replication of this folder, use the DFS Management snap-in to remove this server from the replication group, and then add it back to the group. This causes the server to perform an initial synchronization task, which replaces the stale data with fresh data from other members of the replication group.

    Hello Shannon Maddox,

    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community forum.

    How many DCs are there in the domain now?

    Please check the AD replication between the two DCs first. Run the commands below on PDC.

    repadmin /showrepl >C:\rep1.txt

    repadmin /replsum >C:\rep2.txt

    repadmin /showrepl * /csv >c:\repsum.csv

    Please try the possible solution in the similar threads below.
