Warning: DcGetDcName(TIME_SERVER) call failed, error 1355
A Time Server could not be located.
The server holding the PDC role is down.
Warning: DcGetDcName(GOOD_TIME_SERVER_PREFERRED) call failed, error 1355
A Good Time Server could not be located.
It turned out that actually there were no problems with the time server in my case.
All these messages were misleading!! It cost me a whole day! So I hope this solution will be helpful for other people.
The actual reasons were:
1. Unavailable SYSVOL share
2. Unavailable NETLOGON share
How to restore it?
1. To recreate SYSVOL
net stop ntfrs
REG ADD "HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\NtFrs\Parameters\Backup/Restore\Process at Startup" /v BurFlags /t REG_DWORD /d 212 /f
net start ntfrs
Origin https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/316790/the-sysvol-and-netlogon-shares-are-missing-after-you-restore-a-domain
2. To recreate NETLOGON - just type in these two commands:
net stop netlogon
net start netlogon
3. Test it:
dsquery server
netdom query fsmo
dcdiag /test:fsmocheck
Thank you, this was extremely helpful.
