repadmin

Hello

I am trying to compare the properties of two DC's to compare and check if
they are up to date with each other. The command I am trying to run is

repadmin /checkprop DCname dc=mydomain,dc=com

Obviously I am doing this wrong, I need help with the command syntax

Thanks very much

Howdie!

From the repadmin /checkprop help, the correct syntax goes:

repadmin /checkprop <DSA_LIST> <Naming Context> <Originating DSA
Invocation ID> <Originating USN>.

I wonder what you're trying to check with that operation. Is it just to
see whether replication works smoothly? Is there reason to be concerned
about the DCs not being in sync?

Cheers,
Florian

Hello Sawyer,

You can also run repadmin /showrepl on each of them for a simple output of
the replication status. If you are concerned about problems i would also
run dcdiag /v and netdiag /v.

If you want to check to verify everything is good between DC's, check out an
artcile Jorge has on invocation id's and guid's. I think this is what you
are looking for.
