When I run dcdiag I get this how do I fix it

Doing initial required tests

Testing server: Default-First-Site\PGDATA
Starting test: Connectivity
* Active Directory LDAP Services Check
PGDATA's server GUID DNS name could not be resolved to an
IP address. Check the DNS server, DHCP, server name, etc
Although the Guid DNS name

(c8ec6d18-7592-40b0-9544-a6aa1fd36cff._msdcs.AULTPG.local) couldn't be

resolved, the server name (pgdata.AULTPG.local) resolved to the IP

address (10.10.26.5) and was pingable. Check that the IP address is

registered correctly with the DNS server.
......................... PGDATA failed test Connectivity
 
If the server is using a static IP address, you must manually add a host record to DNS. Domain controllers will do this for their records, but member servers using static IP's won't.

If I look at the dns server on aultdata
there are 3 entrys for aultdata under foward lookup zone \aultpg.local

the entrys are

same as parent SOA pgdata.aultpg.local
same as paret NS PGDATA.AULTPG.LOCAL
pgdata A 10.10.26.5


there are no folders under the aultpg.local

I think there are suppose to be 4 folders called
_msdcs
_sites
_tcp
_udp


And above aultpg.local There is suppose to be a folder called cashed lookups?

Any ideas
