Introduction
In certain situations, it is necessary to manually replicate an Active Directory (AD) partition from one domain controller (DC) to another.
If you manually replicate an AD partition between DCs that do not have a replication agreement, the content is replicated. However, this operation does not create the replication agreement. For further details, see The Samba KCC. |
Manually Replicating Directory Partitions
To manually replicate all AD partitions from domain controller DC1
to DC2
:
# samba-tool drs replicate DC2 DC1 dc=samdom,dc=example,dc=com Replicate from DC1 to DC2 was successful. # samba-tool drs replicate DC2 DC1 DC=ForestDnsZones,DC=samdom,DC=example,DC=com Replicate from DC1 to DC2 was successful. # samba-tool drs replicate DC2 DC1 CN=Configuration,DC=samdom,DC=example,DC=com Replicate from DC1 to DC2 was successful. # samba-tool drs replicate DC2 DC1 DC=DomainDnsZones,DC=samdom,DC=example,DC=com Replicate from DC1 to DC2 was successful. # samba-tool drs replicate DC2 DC1 CN=Schema,CN=Configuration,DC=samdom,DC=example,DC=com Replicate from DC1 to DC2 was successful.
By default, the samba-tool drs replicate
command replicates only object operations that were not ran on the destination DC. This includes:
- Create new objects
- Updated changed objects
- Delete removed objects
To resynchronise all objects in a partition, pass the --full-sync
option to the command.
