Active Directory Replication is taking longer than expected message stops SBS installation
Active Directory Replication is taking longer than expected message stops SBS installation
SBS 2008 Event ID 13552 and 13555
Today Im working a migration from SBS 2008 to SBS 2011. This error came up. In order to apply a fix I had to do some digging to get rid of this error. The new SBS 2011 VM could not become a domain controller until this was fixed so heres what I have done.
Once this process is done then click Yes on the prompt from the new SBS server. Replication will successfully complete and the setup of SBS 2011 will continue.
