Directory Service Was Unable To Allocate A Relative Identifier Problem

Follow these steps to resolve this error: • Restore the computer from the earlier backup and don’t restart it after the restoration.

• Open the command prompt on the temp RID Master domain controller on the production network on another computer and write repadmin /showvector and press the Enter key.

• Exit from the temporary RID Master domain controller and move it to the network with the restored computer.

• Restart both the computers.

• Initiate the replication between them.

• Transfer the master roles to the original role-holder.

• Connect both computers again to the production network.
