Guys I have a weird situation where the Domaindnszones and Forestdnszones partitions exists but does not show in dns.
If I try to recreated the partition in DNS it says "partition already exists".
I try Recreating it in DNS by creating a new domain under the "mydomain" zone but it never gets populated.
Replication seems to be working fine between my DC's
This domain was created from way back in the NT days and has just been upgraded over the years..
currently we have 1 2003 Dc and 2 2008 r2 Dc. we want to retire the 2003 dc. all 3 dc are DNS, and GC servers.
at this point should i even worry about this two partitions. ( Domaindnszones, Forestdnszones).
I think Dns was never configure correctly when we went from 2000 to 2003
thanks
