Very basic question regarding SITELINKS and object behaviour after their removal.
Hi all. Im looking for the "MS official response' on this simple scenario: I create a sitelink between 2 Active Directory Sites and KCC internally auto creates object connections between dessignated domain controllers /Bridgeheadservers on each of those sites, and then DCs replicate. Everything is cool. But what should happen with those object connections when I manually delete the sitelink because i dont want the sites to replicate no more? Should KCC should remove them after x period of time or should I manually removed them? Im getting different answers and just looking for the official response, since my on lab testings the auto obj connections in both sites are NOT getting removed by KCC after Sitelink deletion and I dont know if that's by design or not. Thanks
Windows Server 2012 - Replication Event on Secondary Domain Controller
We are looking for a way to track when a user account was created/delete/changed on the secondary domain controller. When we make the change on the primary, I can see the event in the event log but we want to see that replication event on the secondary domain controller. I'm not sure what I'm looking for and we have so many logon/logoff events that the event log only holds 2-3 minutes of data before filling up. Since it takes time to replicate, I can't catch the event. I've gone into the group policy settings for the domain controllers and turned on advanced audit for the replication service but it's really only showing me that it was able to talk to the other domain controller, not what was actually replicated. I'm hoping there is a way that we can track the change, even if it is as simple as something like a change was made. It doesn't have to be in great detail. If maybe someone knows what event id is that I need to look for then I can filter through and find it. Maybe I'm looking in the wrong place all together? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
