Admin and RPC messages that are generated because of admin activity

Boot file backup messages

2001

MessageId=2001
Severity=Success
SymbolicName=DNS_BOOTFILE_BACKUP_MESSAGE

The DNS server is now booting from the registry or directory. The existing server boot file will no longer be read by the DNS server at startup. For any new zones that you add or for changes you make to zone information, you must make them using the DNS console. The previous DNS server boot file has been moved to the %SystemRoot%System32Dnsbackup directory. To return to using a boot file, use the DNS console and reconfigure the boot method for the server. For more information, see "To change the boot method used by the DNS server" in the online Help.

2002

MessageId=2002
Severity=Informational
SymbolicName=DNS_EVENT_BOOTFILE_REWRITE

The DNS server has written a new version of the boot file. Either new zones or changes to existing zone information were made through the DNS console that required the DNS Server to update the information in this file.

2003

MessageId=2003
Severity=Error
SymbolicName=DNS_EVENT_BOOTFILE_WRITE_ERROR

2005

MessageId=2005
Severity=Informational
SymbolicName=DNS_EVENT_SWITCH_TO_BOOTFILE

The DNS server has been reconfigured to boot from a boot file. Current server and zone configuration information has been written to this file. To return to booting from the registry or Active Directory, use the DNS console and reconfigure the boot method for the server. For more information, see "To change the boot method used by the DNS server" in the online Help.

Registry messages

2200

Messageid=2200
Severity=Error
SymbolicName=DNS_EVENT_REGISTRY_OPEN_FAILED

The DNS server could not open a registry key. Reinstall the DNS server if it was not able to be started. If the DNS server started, but couldn't load a zone, reload the zone or restart the DNS server.

2202

Messageid=2202
Severity=Error
SymbolicName=DNS_EVENT_REGISTRY_WRITE_FAILED

The DNS server could not write a registry key. The server disk could be full or corrupted or the maximum permissible size for the server registry has been reached. The DNS server will not be able to save server or zone configuration parameters to in the registry unless the problem is fixed.

2203

Messageid=2203
Severity=Error
SymbolicName=DNS_EVENT_REGISTRY_DELETE_FAILED

The DNS server could not delete a registry key. The registry is likely corrupted. The DNS server will not be able to save DNS server or zone configuration parameters in the registry unless the problem is fixed.

2204

Messageid=2204
Severity=Error
SymbolicName= DNS_EVENT_INVALID_REGISTRY_VALUE

The registry value HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEMCurrentControlSetServicesDNSParameters%1 contains an invalid value or could not be read. The DNS server cannot start. You must change this value to valid data or delete it and then attempt to restart the DNS service.

Run time event messages

Aging and scavenging messages

2501

Messageid=2501
Severity=Informational
SymbolicName=DNS_EVENT_AGING_SCAVENGING_END

DNS service has completed a scavenging cycle: Visited Nodes = %1, Scavenged Nodes = %2, Scavenged Records = %3. This cycle took %4 seconds. Next cycle is scheduled in %5 hours. The record data may contain error code.

2502

Messageid=2502
Severity=Informational
SymbolicName = DNS_EVENT_AGING_SCAVENGING_END_NO_WORK

The DNS server has completed a scavenging cycle but no nodes were visited. The possible causes of this condition include:

2600

Messageid=2600
Severity=Informational
SymbolicName = DNS_EVENT_SERVER_SUPPRESSION

To prevent the event log from filling up too rapidly the DNS server has suppressed event ID %1 a total of %2 times in the last %3 minutes.

2601

Messageid=2601
Severity=Informational
SymbolicName = DNS_EVENT_ZONE_SUPPRESSION

To prevent the event log from filling up too rapidly the DNS server has suppressed event ID %1 a total of %2 times in the last %3 minutes. These events were in relation to zone %4.

2630

Messageid=2630
Severity=Informational
SymbolicName = DNS_EVENT_AUTOCONFIG_FAILED

The DNS server could not configure the network connections of this computer with the local computer's IP address as the preferred DNS server, because this computer is connected to networks with different or invalid DNS namespaces. Manual configuration of the local DNS server to perform name resolution on one or more of the namespaces is required before the preferred DNS servers of this computer should be modified. If the network connections of this computer are not configured with the local computer's IP address as the preferred DNS server, this computer may not be able to dynamically register DC locator records in DNS. Absence of these records may prevent other Active Directory domain controllers and domain members from locating this domain controller.

User Action: Ensure that DC locator DNS records enumerated in the file %SystemRoot%system32configetlogon.dns are registered on the local DNS server. If these records are not registered in DNS, follow one of these steps:

2631

Messageid=2631
Severity=Informational
SymbolicName = DNS_EVENT_AUTOCONFIG_SUCCEEDED

The DNS server successfully autoconfigured: %1 %2 %3

3000

MessageId=3000
Severity=Warning
SymbolicName=DNS_EVENT_START_LOG_SUPPRESS

The DNS server is logging numerous run-time events. For information about these events, see previous DNS Server event log entries. To prevent the DNS Server from clogging server logs, further logging of this event and other events with higher Event IDs will now be suppressed.

Zone %1 failed zone refresh check. Unable to connect to master DNS server at %2 to receive zone transfer. Check that the zone contains correct IP address for the master server or if network failure has occurred. For more information, see "To update the master server for a secondary zone" in the online Help. If available, you can specify more than one master server in the list for this zone.

6524

MessageId=6524
Severity=Error
SymbolicName=DNS_EVENT_AXFR_BAD_RESPONSE

Invalid response from master DNS server at %2 during attempted zone transfer of zone %1. Check The DNS server at %2 and insure that it is authoritative for this zone. This can be done by viewing or updating the list of authoritative servers for the zone. When using the DNS console, select zone %1 Properties at server %2 and click the Name Servers tab. If needed, you can add or update this server in the list there. As an alternative solution, you could also modify settings in the Zone Transfer tab to allow transfer of the zone to this and other DNS servers.

6525

MessageId=6525
Severity=Error
SymbolicName=DNS_EVENT_AXFR_REFUSED

Zone transfer request for secondary zone %1 refused by master server at %2. Check the zone at the master server %2 to verify that zone transfer is enabled to this server. To do so, use the DNS console, and select master server %2 as the applicable server, then in secondary zone %1 Properties, view the settings on the Zone Transfers tab. Based on the settings you choose, make any configuration adjustments there (or possibly in the Name Servers tab) so that a zone transfer can be made to this server.

6526

MessageId=6526
Severity=Warning
SymbolicName=DNS_EVENT_ZONE_NEWER_THAN_SERVER_VERSION

Zone %1 version %2 is newer than version %3 on DNS server at %4. The zone was not updated. DNS servers supplying zones for transfer must have the most recent version of the zone, based on the primary zone. If zone on remote server %4, is in fact the most recent version of the zone, do the following at that server:

The DNS server will transfer the new version and write its zone file. When deleting the zone file at server %4, locate the file named %1.dns in the %SystemRoot%System32Dns directory and delete it. An alternative solution is to delete and recreate the secondary zone at server %4. This could be preferred if this server hosts large zones and restarting it at this time would be a consuming or costly operation.

6527

MessageId=6527

Update and AutoConfig messages

6701

MessageId=6701
Severity=Success
SymbolicName=DNS_EVENT_UPDATE_DS_PEERS_SUCCESS

DNS Server has updated its own host (A) records. In order to insure that its DS-integrated peer DNS servers are able to replicate with it, they have been updated with the new records through dynamic update.
