I am migrating AD 2003 sp2 to Server 2012. During the AD transfer process it gets halted due to not meeting prerequisites.
Error: Verification of prerequisites for Active Directory preparation failed. The schema master did not complete a replication cycle after the last reboot.
Note: dhhcsbo2 was an old domain controller. This DC was removed 4 years ago. We are currently on WS 2003 sp2 domain (dhhcsbo3). The dhhcsbo2 DC has not been in production for some time.
See repadmin /showrepl below. Is there an easy way for me to remove this dhhcsbo2 from the replication process without it being available?
