Thx.

Any idea on how to know in advance how many and what records will be scavenged ? (ldifde, script,etc..)

Just to identify exactly what will be deleted from DNS.

Thx and have a nice day.

If Aging isn't enabled on a zone the TimeStamp value is, as far as I'm aware, not replicated.

It's worth turning on View / Advanced when configuring Aging. A value is set to state that the zone cannot be scavenged before a certain date, found under the Aging window. It's used to ensure full replication of TimeStamps has completed prior to the first Scavenging attempt and should be the value of the Refresh interval + 1 hour (or there abouts).

OK,Thx for your answer Chris.

Last Q.

I have found several of my DCs with a Registration Timestamp set to 2007/07/20 on their A records (. dns zone).
I know that these DCs are up & running and it seems that no refresh to their A record have been done...

Any clues why operationnal DCs did not refresh their records ?

Many thx.

1. First bit:

Yep, it is.

Second bit:

That's the Registration Timestamp, not the deletion timestamp.

What are you thinking of setting Aging to?

Service Records will be Refreshed / Updated by the Domain Controllers once every 24 hours.

I recommend you consider leaving the default 7 Days No-Refresh and 7 Days Refresh there. At any point during either interval the record will accept an Update request so changes are still no problem.

2. All Dynamically Added records are effected by Aging / Scavenging. Only static records (records with no time-stamp) are immune.

Hello,

We are about to activate the aging/scavenging on our DNS AD-integrated.
questions:
1) is it safe to activate aging/scavenging on _msdcs. ? I have many srv records that are timestamped to be deleted on 2008/04/10.
2) will clustered servers will also be affected by aging/scavenging ?

Thx
