Re: Replication and Preferred Bridgehead

I do not remember the event ID, but it is true the ISTG will choose a
non-BH, although manual list has been configured.

Can you give more detail about this?

I mean:
You should at least have two for redundacy. If all the DCs in the manual
list become UNavailable the ISTG will not choose another DC for BH
services as
it would if nothing manual was defined

If you define a Bridgehead Server list it means that you are telling the
ISTG..."use only these DCs".
You should at least have two for redundacy. If all the DCs in the manual
list become available the ISTG will not choose another DC for BH services
as it would if nothing manual was defined.

I do not remember the event ID, but it is true the ISTG will choose a
non-BH, although manual list has been configured. This has got to do with
that a DC/GC needs to replicate a NC that is not being replicated by the
current BHs on the manual list. So it picks another DC that is not in the
manual BH list that does replicate the NC needed Depending on the
situation, you need to make sure that EACH NC in the forest is replicated
through the BH (in a multi-domain forest)...

what is the event ID? (I know it reports one)

Hi,
With Windows 2003, does ISTG automatically create NTDS connections on
non-bridgehead domain controller even though there are preferred
bridgehead
available in the AD site? What are the situations that this can happen?
(I am
seeing such a case but don't really know why it happens)

Please enlighten.

Thanks
