Good Day
We installing CRM 4 (Upgrading from a CRM 3) system in a multi-server configuration. There are hundreds on Domain Controllers in the AD (OU) structure.
The Installation does not complete due to a Active Directory Error.
The error we are getting:
Action Microsoft.Crm.Setup.InstallConfigDatabaseAction failed. Unable to obtain DNS Hostname of Active Directory domain Controller with ntdsa object name "CN=NTDS Settings,CN=.............................etc etc"
The server that it is failing on is a Domain Controller that is currently down.... but there could be many DM's down at any point as there are a lot of external sites / mobile sites etc....
When we do a command from the CRM server to see which server is the Logon server... it is pointing to the Local DM server......
The installation is failing on this step everytime.
1. Why does the CRM setup need to reference every DM in the OU?
2. Is there a way to make the CRM setup only reference the Local current DM that is active / online?
thank You
