I have VMs running Windows Server 2012 and 2016. The 2012 server is the domain controller with all roles.
I successfully installed Active Directory services onto the 2016 server and promoted it to a domain controller following this guide.
When I get to the last steps of Migrating FSMO Roles, I try to do it in powershell, (ISE and non-ISE, Run as Admin, logged in as domain admin) and every time, it gives me the error:
PS C:\Windows\system32> Move-ADDirectoryServerOperationMasterRole -Identity servername -OperationMasterRole SchemaMaster, DomainNamingMaster, PDCEmulator, RIDMaster, InfrastructureMaster
Move-ADDirectoryServerOperationMasterRole : Could not find attribute: 'dNSHostName' on object:
'CN=servername,CN=Servers,CN=Default-First-Site-Name,CN=Sites,CN=Configuration,DC=Domain,DC=local'.
At line:1 char:1
+ Move-ADDirectoryServerOperationMasterRole -Identity PPG-7 -OperationM ...
+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+ CategoryInfo : NotSpecified: (servername:ADDirectoryServer) [Move-ADDirector...ationMast
erRole], ADException
+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : ActiveDirectoryServer:0,Microsoft.ActiveDirectory.Management.Command
s.MoveADDirectoryServerOperationMasterRole
The guide recommended that I set the primary DNS on the target server to be its own IP, with the old DC as secondary. I did this and got the error so I tried swapping them and also trying with 8.8.8.8 and got the same error each time. I went into the target servers network settings and enabled IPv6 as well but it produced the same error. I’ve tried fresh starts on both servers with no luck. I haven’t been able to find a tremendous amount of info on this particular error at all, and almost nothing for this configuration. If anyone has some ideas for what to try next, that would be greatly appreciated, thanks!
