unable to join any new computer to the domain
I have a domain controller windows server 2012 R2.
Few months back I added one additional domain controller. Additional domain controller's hardware become faulty & was shut down permanently.
Now getting server alerts that it is The DFS Replication service failed to communicate with partner ADC1 for replication
group Domain System & many similar errors.
Now I am unable to join any new computer to the domain.
getting a dialog box on device I am trying to join: The following error occurred attempting to join the domain mydomain.local. cannot complete this function.
I don't know if the absence of additional domain controller is causing this issue or something else.
Please guide to fix this issue.

Other DC was operation master in your network (FSMO roles). You need to transfer FSMO roles to your current DC.
Since you don't know what were roles assigned to old DC, I guess you should assign all operation master roles to your current DC.

All the roles were assigned to the master & currently working controller.
& while adding additional domain controller I tried to assign maximum roles additional to master domain controller, in case master goes down the additional may work.
result at master & only DC:
C:\Users\Administrator>net
Schema master IBMVDC.mi.local
Domain naming master IBMVDC.mi.local
PDC IBMVDC.mi.local
RID pool manager IBMVDC.mi.local
Infrastructure master IBMVDC.mi.local
The command completed successfully.

I guess that answer is yes, but, did you double check your primary DNS address on hosts that you are trying to join to domain?

Hello azure self,
I would recommend that you open a new question for your issue to get to all the experts.
Have a good day.
Check the existing DC for the FSMO roles and seize any missing one.
