Long story short
I had 2 DC's with DFSR installed on both of them.
As far as I know this is wrong because it take the netlogon and sysvol folders under them and they wont release them
until demote.. (maybe im wrong?)
I created new DC and trasfered all the FSMO roles to him with dhcp and dns settings and demoted both DC's with the DFSR
after demoting one of the DC's I changed his name (file server DC) and promoted him again to be DC in the same domain
after doing that I get event 1864 on both DC's
The only idea I have is to clean up server metadata using Active Directory Sites and Services by following this Microsoft doc
Clean up AD DS server metadata
but I dont fully understand the proccess and I dont want to destroy the file server
is there any other way?
