Replication Issues Windows 2012 R2 servers in multi-site config

-
Hi All,
Having some major replication issues after a power outage took out the FSMO role holder. Ever since I am getting the following errors from repadmin /showrepl and Event id's 1311 and 1865 as well as a host of others in the event viewer for Directory Services. I have followed the resetting account using netdom to no avail. I have run it on all three DC's but nothing is improving. Server01 is the domain master, PDC, etc. Any help would be much appreciated. I have been wrestling with this for a week now.

Hi,
I assume you also see this 'Source: Microsoft-Windows-Security-Kerberos Event ID: 4' on your domain controllers.
Regarding resetting the password, you need to run the command from the 'broken' servers and point to the pdc in your case.

Either dns name or ip address produces the same reult
Could not find the network path. Nothing has changed on sonicwalls and replication was working fine so what else could be the cause? I can connect between servers using DNS names with RDP and dns appears to be resolving on all DC's in each site. Any other suggestions?

Hi Don,
In event ID 1311 will log in the events when the replication configuration information in the AD DS does not provide the correct topology. The KCC (Knowledge Consistency Checker) is failing to gather the physical topology of your active directory.

Make sure that that no firewall rules or routing is correctly configured to the network. If after the power outage there seems to be a connectivity problem kindly check your routing tables. To isolate connectivity issue you can go through the steps provided in this article to troubleshoot the issue. Check the inter-Site Transport configuration and make sure it is able to transport.

Clock settings are good. I have it narrowed to a firewall issue with the Sonicwalls. I have 3 sites with site to site vpn's. Site A is connected to B and C. Site B is connected to A and C and site C is connected to A and B. I can ping from A to B and C. I can ping from B to C and C to B but I cannot ping from B and C to A. I can ping the gateway in site A from B and C so I am assuming it is a firewall issue inn site A. I can ping from the gateway in A to the server. it's bizarre. I did find out that there was a power outage at site A so maybe something is amiss from that. The bizarre thing is that the configs are the same across all three firewallls. I may just have to reconfigure the firewall at site A.

Not seeing how to attach the file. But basically getting error 8341 or LDAP Bind Failed between servers. So it looks like the firewall is blocking 135 and 139 from what I have read. I have made rules to open those ports from the VPN along with AD and Netbios and still nothing. I am thinking a complete rebuild of the firewall may be necessary.

Getting the dreaded Target principal name is incorrect. When I run netdom resetpwd /s:broken_server /ud:domain\username /pd:password I get a network path not found. I can ping between all DC's in all sites. error 8341 on repadmin /syncall and repadmin /kcc *

Hi,
Please have a try the following suggestions to see if it helps:
1. On the DC which showed the error, change the startup type to "Manual" for "Kerberos Key Distribution Center Service"
“Stop" this service
2. Now run the netdom command in your reply as administrator.
3. Reboot DC and navigate back to the services and right click the kerberos one again and choose properties, now set it back to automatically and start it back.
You could refer to more details step by step from the following article, please see:
