replication errors after 3 days offline DC

[Uli Schellhaas]

Hello,

i shortly will summarise my problem:

theoretically, i made backups of 4 of my 6 dc's with HDD
cloning technics on friday approx 12.00 .
Today, those 4 were damaged and have been recovered using
the other HDD's.

Now, i cannot replicate good enough : i just will note
down some critical observations:

when i try to reach one Dc by another, it tells me: "Logon
Failure: The target account name is incorrect" . When i
try it by IP, it works.

When i try to replicate using replmon :
"ERROR_REPLICA_SYNC_FAILED_THE TARGET PRINCIPAL NAME IS
INCORRECT"

I have found such things within the knowledgebase, and
tried resetting the DC's each others passwort:
netdom resetpwd /servertherserver /userd /passwordd

which worked on some DC's , on others not. When it was
working, i had access to the DC's via the replmon and the
\\name again . When it was not working, the error was:
"The target Account name is incorrect"

At the moment, i only have one way replication, from pc:
3-4-1-6-2-5-(stop) . Sadly my PC4 is the FSMO holder of
most roles, but looking to the replication route, i guess
he has the oldest data (

Maybe it helps resetting the DC's machine account ? please
share any thought with me

greetings.:: Uli Schellhaas

hello,

i had success with the netdom only when i created
replication links on any DC for any DC.

Replication didnt work properly in this setup, but i was
able to connect each dc to the next again, so the normal
replication was working when i deletet the temp.
replication links.

greetings
