I have a site with a failed server and the DFS needs rebuilding. There are 2 replication groups along with the name spaces.
I can remove name spaces without issues. However I am unable to remove any part of the replication groups, not the members, the connections or the group itself.
Using both DFSM mmc or privileged CMD and dfsradmin I get the following error on each of the member servers and each of the domain controllers:
C:\>dfsradmin RG Delete /Rgname:"Replication Group"
Failed:
Replication Group: The replication group cannot be deleted. The user has insufficient access rights.
I confirmed that domain admins and enterprise admins have delegated rights assigned but for the sake of it added Everyone but still I get this error.
There is of course a topology error due to the failed member server.
Is there a way to force the deletion since I really don't need to keep any of this in place and would like to blow it all away and rebuild it (correctly this time)?
Cheers
