Windows Server 2012 Domain error
We installed a new Windows Server 2012 to replace an existing Windows 2008 Server. We attached the Windows 2012 to the network and then ran the command to transfer the FSMO roles over to the new server, there were no error messages and the 2012 server became the new domain controller.
We turn off the old server and remove it. We go into active directory for users and computers and received the following message that is attached. "Naming Information cannot be located"
We then ran commands to seize the FSMO and AD following the steps listed here:
https://www.petri.com/forums/forum/server-operating-systems/windows-server-2008-2008-r2/52670-dns-error-after-the-upgrade
We received errors that the started with "the role owner attribute cannot be read"
The issue still persists being able to access any active directory tools. The users can still log in and everything runs.
We are at a lost, any suggestions to get this corrected is appreciated.
Thanks
