SBS 2003 in journal wrap
Dear Experts,
I have inherited an SBS 2003 domain with a few issues. I am about to install a new SBS 2011 server in migration mode but need to resolve a few issues first.
The SBS is reporting that it is in journal wrap mode: Event ID 13568
There was once a "backup server" that they used but it failed, leaving the system in a state where NTFRS could no longer replicate. Apparently this happened around 5 years ago.
I've seen this situation before and successfully recovered from it, but I expected to also see the tombstone event in the logs.
So I'm approaching this with caution.
What's the best way to recover from this?
Thanks

Would it not be safer to clean the metadata first?

and then do a D2?

Setting the registry value as described worked perfectly.
Many thanks for your help on this.
