How to replicate dns manually

That broken DC now almost looks ok. But there is a DNS problem. While the DNS zone that the DCs were in, properly replicated, other zones didn't. and are empty. Is there a way to force replicate a specific zone? We had other local zones, using x.x.x addresses, www.doorway.ru domain names. Those did not replicate.  · You have to configure zone transfers manually in the DNS console. The question in class was how to initiate replication manually. Once you have properly configured a Primary and secondary DNS server and configured the Primary server to allow zone transfers, you can manually initiate a zone transfer. Below you can see our test environment.  · •The zone data is replicated to other DCs in the replication scope where the data is stored (based on one of the 3 logical locations) •Each DC in the replication scope that has DNS installed, will automatically make available the zone data in DNS •Each DC that hosts the zone can "write" to the zone, and the changes get replicated to other DCs in the replication .

Repadmin can be uses to force the replication. Assuming the zones are ad integrated. Otherwise, ensure you have dns notify setup correctly, to enable the primary to notify the secondary and have the secondary pull the updates. You can also force the secondary to replicate with the primary, using the mms. Click Yes. Tip. If you clicked No, then in the DFS management console right-click on the Replication section and select the New Replication Group to create a new replication group. In the DFS Replication Configuration Wizard, you need to verify the name of the replication group and the directory you want to replicate. On the current DNS server, start Registry Editor (www.doorway.ru). Locate and click the following registry sub key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\WindowsNT\CurrentVersion\DNS Server\Zones. Export the Zones entry to a registry file. On the destination DNS server, double-click each registry file to import the Zones subkeys into the registry.

Is there a way to force replicate a specific zone? We had other local zones, using x.x.x addresses, www.doorway.ru domain names. Those did not replicate. Option 1: You can create secondary zones. On the server that hosts www.doorway.ru you would create a secondary zone for www.doorway.ru then repeat the other way round. if you do this then you will have to allow Zone transfer from one zone to the other from the zone transfer tab. Option 2: you can create a stub zone on each. Navigate to the site for which you’d like to replicate the domain controllers. Expand it by clicking the arrowhead next to the site name. Expand the Servers. Expand the DC which you’d like to replicate. Click on NTDS Settings.
