Some Question to chew on for the Weekend:
You are the administrator of a Windows 2000 domain. The domain has two domain controllers named Server1 and Server2. The volume that contains the Active Directory database file on Server1 is running out of disk space. You decide to move the database file to an empty volume on a different disk on Server1.
What should you do?
A. Restart Server1 in Directory Services restore mode. Use the NTDSUTIL utility to move the database file to the empty volume.
B. Use Windows Backup to create a backup of the System State data of Server1. Restart Server2 in Directory Services restore mode. Restore the system State data to the empty volume.
C. Use the Logical Disk Manager console to mount the empty volume in the folder that contains the Active Directory database file.
D. Stop the Netlogon service on Server1. Use Windows Explorer to move NTDS.DIT to the empty volume. Start the NetLogon service again. Force replication from Server2.
One possible Answer!
We'll see you on Monday!

The answer is A | |

| It is A. | |

| It's A for sure.
But I guess C would work also. It would not "move" the file to the other empty volume but it would give more free space.
But in this scenario, it is definately A. | |

Everyone liked A? it was correct!
The error you'll receive on the domain controller will be Lsass.exe - System Error, Directory Services could not start because of the following error: There is not enough space on the disk. Error Status: 0xc000007f. Please click OK to shutdown this system and reboot into Directory Service Restore Mode, check the event logs for more detailed information. There are two possible resolutions:
Resolution Method #1, clear space on the drive:
- Boot the domain controller into Directory Services Restore mode (Windows 2000 domain controllers only), and log on with the Directory Services Restore mode administrator account and password (this is the password you assigned during the Dcpromo process).
- Locate the drive containing the directory and log files (located in the NTDS folder on the root drive by default).
- Free some space on the drive, then reboot normally. If there is no space to free, use method 2.
Resolution Method #2, move the database or log files (correct answer to this question):
NTDSUTIL.EXE has an option for moving either the database file or the database log file. If all drives are at capacity, it may be necessary to install an additional hard disk in the computer.
- Boot the domain controller in Directory Services Restore mode and log on with the Directory Services Restore mode administrator account and password (this is the password you assigned during the Dcpromo process).
- At a command prompt, type NTDSUTIL.EXE, type "files" to receive the "file maintenance" prompt.
- Type info. Note the path of the database and log files.
- To move the database, type "Move DB" to %s (where %s is the target folder).
- To move the log files, type "Move Logs" to %s (where %s is the target folder).
- Type quit twice to return to the command prompt, reboot the computer normally. |
