Dcdiag

Dcd ag
Updated: July 12, 2010 Applies To: Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2003 R2, Windows Server 2003 with SP1, Windows Server 2008 Analyzes the state of domain controllers in a forest or enterprise and reports any problems to help in troubleshooting. As an end-user reporting program, dcdiag is a command-line tool that encapsulates detailed knowledge of how to identify abnormal behavior in the system. Dcdiag displays command output at the command prompt. Dcdiag consists of a framework for executing tests and a series of tests to verify different functional areas of the system. This framework selects which domain controllers are tested according to scope directives from the user, such as enterprise, site, or single server. Dcdiag is built into Windows Server 2008 R2 and Windows Server 2008. It is available if you have the Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) or Active Directory Lightweight Directory Services (AD LDS) server role installed. It is also available if you install the Active Directory Domain Services Tools that are part of the Remote Server Administration Tools (RSAT). For more information, see How to Administer Microsoft Windows Client and Server Computers Locally and Remotely1 (http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=177813). If Dcdiag takes a long time to run on a computer that runs Windows Server 2008 R2 or Windows 7, install the hotfix in article 9792942 (http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=196596) in the Microsoft Knowledge Base. To use dcdiag, you must run the dcdiag command from an elevated command prompt. To open an elevated command prompt, click S a , right-click Command P omp , and then click R n a admini a o . For examples of how to use this command, see Examples.

Dcdiag

/n:<NamingContext>

Uses NamingCon e as the naming context to test. You can specify domains in NetBIOS, Domain Name System (DNS), or distinguished name format.

Uses Domain\U e Name. Dcdiag uses the current credentials of the user (or process) that is logged on. If alternate credentials are needed, use the following options to provide those credentials for binding with Pa o d as the password: /u:<Domain>\<UserName> /p:{* | <Password> | ""} Use quotation marks ("") for an empty or null password. Use the wildcard character (*) to prompt for the password.

/a /e /q /v /i

Tests all the servers on this site. Tests all the servers in the enterprise. Overrides /a. Quiet. Prints only error messages. Verbose. Prints extended information. Ignores superfluous error messages. Affects the MachineAcco n test only. This parameter causes the test to fix the Service Principal Names (SPNs) on the Machine Account object of the domain controller. Redirects all output to a log file (LogFile). Comprehensive. Runs all tests except DCPromo and RegisterInDNS, including non-default tests. Optionally, you can use this parameter with the /skip parameter to skip specified tests. The following tests are not run by default:

/fix

/f:<LogFile>

/c

Topology CutoffServers OutboundSecureChannels

{/h | /?}

Displays help at the command prompt. Runs this test only. The Connectivity test, which you cannot skip, is also run. You should not have this parameter in the same command with the / kip parameter.

Dcdiag

Tests the connection between the domain controller on which you run the command and the source domain controller. (This parameter is used for the /ReplSource: CheckSecurityError test.) So ceDomainCon olle is the DNS name, <SourceDomainController> NetBIOS name, or distinguished name of a real or potential server that will be the source domain controller for replication, as represented by a real or potential connection object.

DNS Test S nta

The Dcdiag DNS test uses the following syntax:

DNS Test Parameters

/test:DNS [DNS e ] Performs the specified DNS test. If no test is specified, defaults to /Dn All. /DnsBasic Performs basic DNS tests, including network connectivity, DNS client configuration, service availability, and zone existence. /DnsFor arders Performs the /Dn Ba ic tests, and also checks the configuration of forwarders. /DnsDelegation Performs the /Dn Ba ic tests, and also checks for proper delegations. /DnsD namicUpdate Performs /Dn Ba ic tests, and also determines if dynamic update is enabled in the Active Directory zone. /DnsRecordRegistration Performs the /Dn Ba ic tests, and also checks if the address (A), canonical name (CNAME) and well-known service (SRV) resource records are registered. In addition, creates an inventory report based on the test results. /DnsResol eE tName [/DnsInternetName:<In e ne Name>] Performs the /Dn Ba ic tests, and also attempts to resolve In e ne Name. If /Dn In e ne Name is not specified, attempts to resolve the name www.microsoft.com. If /Dn In e ne Name is specified, attempts to resolve the Internet name supplied by the user. /DnsAll Performs all tests, except for the /DnsResolveExtName test, and generates a report. /f:<LogFile> Redirects all output to LogFile. /s:<DomainCon olle > Runs the tests against DomainCon olle . If this parameter is not specified, the tests are run

against the local domain controller. /e Runs all tests specified by / e No e Run times for DNS tests can be significant in large enterprises when the / parameter is used. e Domain controllers and DNS servers that are offline will increase run time as a result of longtime out periods for RPC and other protocols. :DNS against all domain controllers in the Active Directory forest.

/ Verbose. Presents extended information about successful test results, in addition to information about errors and warnings. When the / parameter is not used, provides only error and warning information. Use the / switch when errors or warnings are reported in the summary table. / :<XMLLog. ml> Redirects all output to <XMLLog.xml>. This parameter works only with the / e :dn option.

/ sl:<XSLFile. l> o <XSLTFile. l > Adds the processing instructions that reference the specified stylesheet. This parameter works only with / e :dn / :<XMLLog.xml> option.

Dcdiag tests
The tables in this section show tests that you can run by using dcdiag. The tests are grouped into the following categories: Domain controller tests that you cannot skip Domain controller tests that you can skip These tests are grouped into two tables based on whether they run by default. Non-domain controller tests Domain controller tests that ou cannot skip Connec i i Checks if domain controllers are registered in DNS, if they can be pinged and if they have LDAP or remote procedure call (RPC) connectivity. Domain controller tests that ou can skip The following table shows tests that run by default. Replica ion Checks for timely replication and any replication errors between domain controllers. NCSecDe c Checks that the security descriptors on the naming context heads have appropriate permissions for replication. Ne Logon
echne .mic o of .com/en/lib a /cc731968(d=p in e , = .10).a p 4/22

2/27/12

Dcdiag

Checks that the appropriate logon privileges exist to allow replication to proceed. Ad e i ing Checks whether each domain controller advertises itself in the roles that it should be capable of performing. This test fails if the Netlogon Service has stopped or failed to start. Kno OfRoleHolde Checks whether the domain controller can contact the servers that hold the five operations master roles (also known as flexible single master operations or FSMO roles). i e Checks for failures that would prevent or temporarily hold up intersite replication and predicts how long it would take for the Knowledge Consistency Checker (KCC) to recover. Impo an Results of this test are often not valid, especially in atypical site or KCC configurations or at the Windows Server 2003 forest functional level.

In e

FSMOCheck Checks that the domain controller can contact a Kerberos Key Distribution Center (KDC), a time server, a preferred time server, a primary domain controller (PDC), and a global catalog server. This test does not test any of the servers for operations master roles. RidManage Checks whether the relative identifier (RID) master is accessible and if it contains the proper information. MachineAcco n Checks whether the machine account has properly registered and that the services are advertised. Use the /RecreateMachineAccount parameter to attempt a repair if the local machine account is missing. Use the /Fi MachineAcco n parameter if the machine account flags are incorrect. Se O ice Checks whether the appropriate domain controller services are running. bo ndSec eChannel Checks that secure channels exist from all of the domain controllers in the domain to the domains that are specified by the / e domain parameter. The /no i e e ic ion parameter prevents dcdiag from limiting the test to the domain controllers in the site.

Objec Replica ed Checks that the Machine Account and Directory System Agent (DSA) objects have replicated. You can use the /objec dn:dn parameter with the /n:nc parameter to specify an additional object to check. f f ol Checks that the file replication system (FRS) system volume (SYSVOL) is ready. e en Checks to see if there are errors in the file replication system. (Failing replication of the SYSVOL share can cause policy problems.)

kcce en Checks that the KCC is completing without errors.

Dcdiag

emlog Checks that the system is running without errors. CheckSDRefDom Checks that all application directory partitions have appropriate security descriptor reference domains. Ve if Replica Checks that all application directory partitions are fully instantiated on all replica servers. C o RefValida ion Checks the validity of cross-references.

Ve if Refe ence Checks that certain system references are intact for the FRS and replication infrastructure. Ve if En e p i eRefe ence Checks that specified system references are intact for the FRS and replication infrastructure across all objects in the enterprise on each domain controller. / kip:<Te > Skips the specified test. You should not specify this parameter in the same command with the / e parameter. The only test that you cannot skip is Connectivity. The following table shows tests that do not run by default. Topolog Checks that the KCC has generated a fully connected topology for all domain controllers. CheckSec i E o Reports on the overall health of replication with respect to Active Directory security in domain controllers running Windows Server 2003 SP1. You can perform this test against one or all domain controllers in an enterprise. When the test finishes, dcdiag presents a summary of the results, along with detailed information for each domain controller tested and the diagnosis of security errors that the test reported. The following argument is optional: /ReplSo ce:So ceDomainCon olle

This argument checks the ability to create a replication link between a real or potential source domain controller (So ceDomainCon olle ) and the local domain controller. C offSe e Checks for any server that is not receiving replications because its partners are not running. Includes six optional DNS-related tests, as well as the Connectivity test, which runs by default. You can run the tests individually or together. The tests include the following parameters: /Dn Ba ic Confirms that essential services are running and available, necessary resource records are registered, and domain and root zones are present. /Dn Fo a de

Dcdiag

/Dn Delega ion Confirms that the delegated name server is functioning and checks for broken delegations. /Dn D manicUpda e Checks that the Active Directory domain zone is configured to do secure dynamic updates and register a test record. /Dn Reco dRegi a ion

Tests the registration of all essential DC Locator records. /Dn Re ol eE Name

Checks the basic resolution of either an intranet or Internet name. O bo ndSec eChannel Checks that secure channels exist from all of the domain controllers in the domain to the domains that are specified by the / e domain parameter. The /no i e e ic ion parameter prevents dcdiag from limiting the test to the domain controllers in the site.

Ve if Replica Checks that all application directory partitions are fully instantiated on all replica servers. Ve if En e p i eRefe ence Checks that specified system references are intact for the FRS and replication infrastructure across all objects in the enterprise on each domain controller. No e AD DS displays text, such as naming context names and server names, which contains international or Unicode characters correctly only if you have installed appropriate fonts and language support on the test computer.

Non-domain controller tests DcP omo Tests the existing DNS infrastructure for any computer that you want to promote to be a domain controller. If the infrastructure is sufficient, you can promote the computer to a domain controller in the domain specified in the parameter /Dn Domain:Ac i e_Di ec o _Domain_DNS_Name. This parameter reports whether any modifications to the existing DNS infrastructure are required. The required argument is /Dn Domain:Ac i e_Di ec o _Domain_DNS_Name. One of the following arguments is required: /Ne Fo e /Ne T ee /ChildDomain /ReplicaDC If you specify the /Ne T ee argument, you must also specify the

to read the output of DNS-enhanced dcdiag

The following steps summarize how to interpret the results provided by DNS-enhanced d d a : cig 1. Run d d a t s : N / / : n . t Microsoft recommends always using the / switch to obtain cig etDS e fdst . verbose information. 2. Open the report in Notepad or a compatible editor. 3. Scroll to end of the report and read the summary table. 4. Identify servers that returned "warn" or "fail" status for any subtest in the summary table. 5. Review the section of output for that server to see what problem was detected (hint: use the Find command on the Edi menu to search on the string "D : DC_comp e name" (without C quotes) to locate the detailed section for a given DC. 6. Resolve problems on DNS clients or DNS server(s) as required. 7. Run d d a / e t D S / / (or / : cig ts:N e s DCName) again to verify the fix. Repeat steps 1 through 6 as required until all failures are understood and reconciled.

Warnings and Errors

D d a takes a conservative approach by identifying DNS client or DNS server configurations that may cig be problematic, do not conform to best practice configurations, or that d d a cannot fully validate. cig Therefore, the summary and detailed sections of d d a may report warnings for DNS configurations cig

that are currently functional. Administrators should investigate and validate such configurations when identified by d d a . cig The tables below contain the configurations that can trigger d d a to report warnings or errors for cig each of the DNS subtests.
