Thanks Meinolf,
I remove the ABCAD from the testing server ABCPC06 and seize the 5 FSMO roles
Remove ABCAD from domain controller
The below message apprear where I seize RID master. As I one have one DC, I
think I still need to seize it, is it?
The select server is not a direct replication partner of the previous RID
master. It is recommended that only direct replication partners be promoted
to be the RID master
