Re: Error - The directory service is busy

Todd,

Thanks for the response. Yeah I looked at that article and discounted it as
being a problem because the error message is constantly being logged - even
after startup. However, I haven't tried switching the zone type but I do
have a question about that. The zone is currently AD-integrated and shared
across 3 other DNS servers. What happens if I switch the zone type on one
server? Do all servers switch to having the zone as a standard primary or
will only the one DNS server switch its zone type? If the latter, will I
run into replication conflicts?

Thanks again.
