Create an user account when Primary Domain Controller is offline


hi,

i have 2 domain controllers in domain, dc1 , dc2. dc1 hold fsmo roles.

i shut down dc1, , create user account using dc2.

however notice dc2 use longer period (around 30 seconds minute) to create user account.

may know normal? thanks.

hello,

do create account on dc directly or admin machine?

and admin machine using running dc dns server on nic?

please assure "echo %logonserver%" running dc shown when creating new account admin machine.


best regards
