These errors mean exactly what they say.

Define your missing "A" records + looks like all will be well.
Please post the nic configuration.

Have you already rebooted the DC since making the most recent changes?
yes, Still same results
I removed the _msdcs.mbg.local zone and recreated it. Upon recreation the _ladp changed to ed527142-f7f0-4d35-9b08-cb94b4028f44.domains._msdcs.mbg.local for domains. When I ran dcdiag /v /test:dns it was still looking for the old domain 58fb4c21-00b4-4414-a432-ea7019ec1f23.domains._msdcs.mbg.local. So I created a folder under domains for the old domain listing and now I am back the way I was on dcdiag. But I have 2 listings for domains under _msdcs.mbg.local.
