Sites Covered by the GC Locator DNS SRV Records

The Sites Covered by the GC Locator DNS SRV Records machine setting should be configured correctly. Specifies the sites for which the global catalogs (GC) should register site-specific GC locator DNS SRV resource records. These records are registered in addition to the site-specific SRV records registered for the site where the GC resides, and records registered by a GC configured to register GC Locator DNS SRV records for those sites without a GC that are closest to it. The GC Locator DNS records and the site-specific SRV records are dynamically registered by the Net Logon service, and they are used to locate the GC. An Active Directory site is one or more well-connected TCP/IP subnets that allow administrators to configure Active Directory access and replication. A GC is a domain controller that contains a partial replica of every domain in Active Directory. To specify the sites covered by the GC Locator DNS SRV records, click Enabled, and enter the sites' names in a space-delimited format. If this setting is not configured, it is not applied to any GCs, and GCs use their local configuration. Fix: (1) GPO: Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\System\Net Logon\DC Locator DNS Records\Sites Covered by the GC Locator DNS SRV Records (2) KEY: HKLM\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Netlogon\Parameters\GcSiteCoverage
