have two domain controllers both server 2008, and the domain function level has been raised to 2008. We migrated from a single dc running server 2008 previously. If I run :

dcdiag /v /c /d /e /s:win2k8dc1 >c:dcdiag.txt

I receive the following error:

Starting test: VerifyEnterpriseReferences

The following problems were found while verifying various important DN

references. Note, that these problems can be reported because of

latency in replication. So follow up to resolve the following

problems, only if the same problem is reported on all DCs for a given

domain or if the problem persists after replication has had

reasonable time to replicate changes.

……………………. WIN2K8DC1 failed test

I have been researching and found a microsoft technet forum post about a similar issue. The answer was to run

dfsrmig /getglobalstate

and see what state the dc was in. if the state is start, prepared or redirected you should start the process over again with the following commands:

dfsrmig /setglobalstate = 1

dfsrmig /setglobalstate = 2

dfsrmig /setglobalstate = 3

to push it through the process. However getglobalstate returned: dfsr migration has not yet initialized. To start migration please set global state to desired value.

Should I still go through the setglobalstate commands, or is this another problem?
