You can close the ticket. Used the following article to fix my issue as it
was a sysvol problem.

These are the instruction that I followed..
Version 1.40 of the SMP – P2P application supports migration of domain
controllers. To migrate a domain controller, reboot the server, press F8 to
boot to Directory Services Restore Mode (DSRM), and launch the SMP – P2P
Agent. The migration runs in Directory Services Restore Mode instead of
booting into SMP Agent Mode. As a result, CHKDSK does not run before the
migration of domain controllers. For more information about preparing a
migration of domain controllers, see your HP account manager for the white
paper Performing physical to ProLiant application migrations with the HP
ProLiant Essentials Server Migration Pack – Physical to ProLiant Edition
Thanks,

so for the other DCs the cloned/imaged DC did not "change" after the
creation of the image and before the restoration of the image. If that is
true, that is important an my guess is then that USN rollbacks are not the
case here.
USN rollbacks are the case if the following would have happened:
DC1, DC2, DC3, DC4 --> all up and running
DC1 is shutdown, image is created, DC1 (the priginal one) is booted and
because of that changes occur (although YOU do not make ANY, but AD itself
does!)
DC1 is shutdown again, the image is restored to other hardware and booted.
For the other DCs the DC1 (the cloned) went back in time while still having
the same identity (invocation ID) and THAT'S when USN rollbacks occur
wait a second.....you said SAFE MODE.... which safe mode?
1 safe mode
2 safe mode with networking
3 directory services restore mode
if 3, then you should be OK, If 1 or 2 then USN rollbacks might have occured
do you understand what I'm saying?

The HP Imaging software reboots the source DC server into safemode (so I
believe this would be considered Offline). After the Image is completed
it
then dumps the image into the new server hardware and at this time the
source
DC is shutdown. After the Image has completed loading on the destination
DC
Server then drivers are loaded and then it comes up online after a reboot.

when a server has been imaged/cloned. what happens to it? Is it shutdown

trying to determine if you may have experienced USN rollbacks or not.
Depending on that conclusion a path for a solution can be chosen

We used the HP Server Migration Pack. Proliant edition.
For the domain controllers, the application boots the server into a
safe
mode and then copies the OS. Reboots the new server and then injects
the
new
drivers.

stop focussing on the solution without even knowing what is going on
explain the process of the P2P tool. what happens. is the server
imaged
while it is down (offline) or online?

for example: he said CLONING. my question is: WHEN? before or after
the
promotion? and of course HOW was it done?
1000 possibilities here.
There is a total of 4 domain controllers and all were cloned back in
November 2007 using an HP product that perfroms P2P (It basically
images
from
one phsyical server to another physical server). Only one of the
servers
was
demoted and then promoted after the conversion and it now only gives
out
NTFRS warning messages in the event logs and the others give out
actually
NTFRS errors. So maybe demoting and promoting the problematic ones
might
also work you think?

O.K. so should I first detect and recover from a USN rollback and
if
that
doesn't resolve my issue then perform a non-authoritative restore
of
my
sysvol on all the domain controllers? Will this cause any
downtime?

I will actually be building 2 new domain controllers and
moving
all
FMSO
roles, DNS, WINS, and DHCP off all the current domain
controllers
and
eventually decomission them and only having the 2 new Domain
Controllers.
Do
you think this will resolve my issues?

I'm going to guess this occurred from doing a clone of your

this

not supported and can create issues with replication (NTDS),
which
is
what
it sounds like you are experiencing (There are ways to make
this
work
but
you have to shut off replication). Odd thing is I have only
heard
of
this
happening against NTDS not NTFRS, so I can't tell you this
is
what
caused
the issue, never the less read the following article on the
fallout
from
such an approach.
