During the installation of a PDC it was added to a main structure.
The PC, containing the first created domain in this main structure, is missing (caused by defect or other reasons).
The PDC is now trying to connect to the missing PC permanently and is generating the error “The connection to the global catalog fails”.
In order to deactivate the connection, you have to have explicit rights of the Administrator from the main structure, which we do not have.
How can the connection be deactivated?
Is it contained in the NTDS.DIT? Is it possible to edit this file for this purpose? What would happen, if we deleted this file (is that possible)?
