How to cure “Exceeded Tombstone life”
LockedI had a piece of freeware that updated one of my servers time from a NIST time server. For some reason, after months of use, the NIST server told my server that it was the year 2150 ! Then when the server tried to replicate, it said that the server had been out of use for more that 6months, and that the tombstone life had been exceeded. i switched the time back, and downed the server, and I’m still having the same replication issues. Here is the even log from Directory service:
“It has been too long since this machine last replicated with the named source machine. The time between replications with this source has exceeded the tombstone lifetime. Replication has been stopped with this source. ”
Does anyone know of a way to remedy this? I know the data on the servers should be accurate, since they were replicating fine until this debacle. I’m trying to avoid forcibly demoting the servers.
Thanks in advance,
Dave
