Hi,

In our domain there are two DC both running Windows 2003 Server with SP1.
Both of the DC have been experiencing the following error message:

===============================================
The File Replication Service is deleting this computer from the replica set
"DOMAIN SYSTEM VOLUME (SYSVOL SHARE)" as an attempt to recover from the error
state,
Error status = FrsErrorMismatchedVolumeSerialNumber
At the next poll, which will occur in 5 minutes, this computer will be
re-added to the replica set. The re-addition will trigger a full tree sync
for the replica set.

For more information, see Help and Support Center at
http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/events.asp.
===============================================

When this error message appears the SYSVOL and NETLOGON shares are deleted,
hence no one cannot logon to the domain. As per the message these shares
should re-appear in 5 minutes. They never do. I either have to restart the
server or stop and restart the FRS service and the 2 shares will re-appear.
It has happened over the last week the majority of the time at 9.15pm and
once at 3.30am.

We have just recently also been receiving the following Event ID:

===================================================
Event ID 13552

The File Replication Service is unable to add this computer to the following
replica set:
"DOMAIN SYSTEM VOLUME (SYSVOL SHARE)"

This could be caused by a number of problems such as:
-- an invalid root path,
-- a missing directory,
-- a missing disk volume,
-- a file system on the volume that does not support NTFS 5.0

The information below may help to resolve the problem:
Computer DNS name is "srv-storage.int.foxaus.com"
Replica set member name is "SRV-STORAGE"
Replica set root path is "c:\windows\sysvol\domain"
Replica staging directory path is "c:\windows\sysvol\staging\domain"
Replica working directory path is "c:\windows\ntfrs\jet"
Windows error status code is
FRS error status code is FrsErrorPreinstallCreFail

Other event log messages may also help determine the problem. Correct the
problem and the service will attempt to restart replication automatically at
a later time.
====================================================

There is very little information on Event ID 13560
FrsErrorMismatchedVolumeSerialNumber.

Any help is much appreciate.

Thanks.
