DCDiag Examples

Example 1: A normal DC

In this example, you want to examine the domain controller so you can verify that it is healthy and functioning properly. Type the following command at the command prompt:

C:\Program Files\Support Tools>dcdiag /s:reskit-DC1 /u:<username> /p:*

note
Substitute the actual account user name for <username>. If you want to specify the domain of the user, use <domainname>\<username>. For example, if you want to specify a user account named AlanS from the Contoso domain, type /u:Contoso\AlanS to specify the user account. If you use an asterisk (*) for the password, the tool will prompt you for a password. If you want to type the password, you can substitute the actual user account password for the asterisk. However, the password will appear on the screen when you type it.

Output similar to the following appears:

Example 2: Failed DNS registration

In this example, you have noticed that one of the domain controllers is not replicating properly. After verifying that the domain controller is operational and can be pinged by IP address, use DCDiag to do an enterprise check. Type the following command at the command prompt:

C:\Program Files\Support Tools>dcdiag /s:reskit-DC1 /u:<username> /p:* /e

Output similar to the following displays:

         IP address.  Check the DNS server, DHCP, server name, etc
         Although the Guid DNS name
         (7594898c-8ba4-4496-a01a-b0f2cadd28a6._msdcs.RESKIT-DOM.reskit.com)

         (reskit-DC2.reskit-sib.RESKIT-DOM.reskit.com) resolved
         to the IP address (172.26.220.34) and was pingable.  Check that the IP
         address is registered correctly with the DNS server.

Note

If you receive output from diagnostic testing similar to the previous example, there is probably a DNS registration issue. For additional diagnostic procedures and potential resolutions, see Troubleshooting DNS (https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=48893). Also, see Troubleshooting Active Directory—Related DNS Problems (https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=130597).
