Active Directory could not transfer the remaining data in directory partition CN=Schema,CN=Configuration,DC=luhsads,DC=xxx,DC=org to domain controller

I'm trying to remove a "good" but old DC.  I get the error below.

Active Directory could not transfer the remaining data in directory partition CN=Schema,CN=Configuration,DC=luhsads,DC=xxxx,DC=org to domain controller

I've read several posts about this error, but none seem to match mine exactly, so before I do a dcpromo /forceremoval I want to check with EE first.

OK that helps.  When running, dcdiag, I got the error failed test NCSecDesc.   Domain controllers doesn't have Replicating Directory Changes in Filtered set.  Replication error "8524".

I didn't see a solution for this error.  Can you help?
Run dcdiag /q and post it here.

Great.  So do you feel it's ok to do the forceremoval, then metadata cleanup?
