Active Directory Replication Tools

The following tools are associated with Active Directory replication.

Note

In Windows 2000 Server and Windows Server 2003, the directory service is named Active Directory. In Windows Server 2008 and Windows Server 2008 R2, the directory service is named Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS). The rest of this topic refers to Active Directory, but the information is also applicable to AD DS.

Dssite.msc: Active Directory Sites and Services

Category

Active Directory Administrative Tools Microsoft Management Console (MMC) snap-in. This tool is installed automatically when you install Active Directory, and is available on the Start menu under Programs\Administrative Tools. This tool also ships with the Administration Tools Pack (Adminpak.msi).

Version compatibility

Active Directory Sites and Services provides a view into the Sites container of the configuration directory partition. Use Active Directory Sites and Services to manage Active Directory replication topology. The following objects and their properties can be managed by using this tool:

  • Sites container: Add new sites.

  • Site objects: Add new servers to a site.

  • NTDS Site Settings object: For each site, view the connection object schedule and enable Universal group membership caching.

  • Server object: View the NTDS Settings object and designate the server as a bridgehead server.

  • NTDS Settings object: View inbound connections for the server. View the connection object schedule and change the source server for the connection.

  • Inter-Site Transports container: Manage IP and SMTP site links.

  • Site link objects: Manage the site link properties for a set of sites.

  • Subnets container: Add, remove, and configure subnets with IP addresses. Associate subnets with sites.

Repadmin.exe: Repadmin

Category

Command-line tool.

Version compatibility

Repadmin is used to view the replication information on domain controllers. You can determine the last successful replication of all directory partitions, identify inbound and outbound replication partners, identify the current bridgehead servers, view object metadata, and generally manage Active Directory replication topology. You can use Repadmin to force replication of an entire directory partition or of a single object. You can also list domain controllers in a site.

Repadmin is extended to enable commands to target sets of domain controllers. For example, you can target all domain controllers in a site or domain, or all domain controllers that are global catalog servers.

Repadmin also includes the RemoveLingeringObjects command, which removes objects that are outdated (do not exist in a replica of the same directory partition on the source domain controller).

For more information about removing lingering objects, see "Fixing Replication Lingering Object Problems (Event IDs 1388, 1988, 2042)" in the Windows Server 2003 Operations Guide at https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=44131. For more information about Repadmin, see Repadmin Overview.

Ntdsutil.exe: Ntdsutil

Category

Command-line tool.

Version compatibility

Ntdsutil.exe provides management capabilities for Active Directory. You can use Ntdsutil.exe to perform Active Directory database maintenance, manage and control single-master operations, and remove replication metadata left behind by domain controllers that are removed from the network without uninstalling Active Directory. The version of Ntdsutil that is included with Windows Server 2003 SP1 removes File Replication service (FRS) metadata in addition to Active Directory replication metadata. You can also use Ntdsutil to create application directory partitions and perform authoritative restore operations. This tool is intended for use by experienced administrators.

Active Directory Replication Registry Entries

The information here is provided as a reference for use in troubleshooting or verifying that the required settings are applied. It is recommended that you do not directly edit the registry unless there is no other alternative. Modifications to the registry are not validated by the registry editor or by Windows before they are applied, and as a result, incorrect values can be stored. This can result in unrecoverable errors in the system. When possible, use Group Policy or other Windows tools, such as Microsoft Management Console (MMC), to accomplish tasks rather than editing the registry directly. If you must edit the registry, use extreme caution.

The following registry settings cannot be modified by using Group Policy or other Windows tools.

NTDS Parameters Registry Settings

The following registry entries are associated with Active Directory replication.

Replicator notify pause after modify (secs)

Registry path

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\NTDS\Parameters

Version

Windows 2000 Server.

Windows 2000 Server: 300 seconds.

The value for the delay between an originating update on a domain controller and the first change notification. On domain controllers running Windows Server 2003 or higher, the value for initial change notification delay is stored in the msDSReplicationNotifyFirstDSADelay attribute on the cross-reference object for each directory partition in the Configuration container. The default value in Windows Server 2003 and higher operating systems is decreased to 15 seconds when the forest functional level is Windows Server 2003 or higher.

Replicator notify pause between DSAs (secs)

Active Directory Replication Group Policy Settings

The following table lists and describes the Group Policy settings that are associated with Active Directory replication updates.

Group Policy Settings Associated with Active Directory Replication

Group Policy Setting Description

Account Lockout Policy:

  • Account lockout duration

  • Account lockout threshold

  • Reset account lockout counter after

Changes to these settings in the Domain Security Policy trigger urgent replication.

Password Policy:

  • Enforce password history

  • Maximum password age

  • Minimum password age

  • Minimum password length

  • Password must meet complexity requirements

  • Store passwords using reversible encryption

Changes to these settings in the Domain Security Policy trigger urgent replication.

Contact PDC on logon failure

Account lockout and domain password changes rely on contacting the primary domain controller (PDC) emulator urgently to update the PDC emulator with the change. If Contact PDC on logon failure is disabled, replication of password changes to the PDC emulator occurs non-urgently.

To find more information about these Group Policy settings, see “Group Policy Settings Reference” in Tools and Settings Collection.

Network Ports Used by Active Directory Replication

By default, RPC-based replication uses dynamic port mapping. When connecting to an RPC endpoint during Active Directory replication, the RPC run time on the client contacts the RPC endpoint mapper on the server at a well-known port (port 135). The server queries the RPC endpoint mapper on this port to determine what port has been assigned for Active Directory replication on the server. This query occurs whether the port assignment is dynamic (the default) or fixed. The client never needs to know which port to use for Active Directory replication.

Note

  • An endpoint comprises the protocol, local address, and port address.

In addition to the dynamic port 135, other ports that are required for replication to occur are listed in the following table.
