Starting the DNS server. | |
Microsoft-Windows-DNS-Server-Service |
The DNS server did not detect any zones of either primary or secondary type during initialization. It will not be authoritative for any zones, and it will run as a caching-only server until a zone is loaded manually or by Active Directory replication. For more information, see the online Help. | |
Microsoft-Windows-DNS-Server-Service |
The DNS server has moved the AD DS-integrated root hint data for all DNS servers in this domain to the %1 directory partition. | |
Microsoft-Windows-DNS-Server-Service |
An administrator has changed the type and zone storage options of zone %1. The zone is now type %2. The zone will be stored in the zone file %3. | |
Microsoft-Windows-DNS-Server-Service |

Microsoft-Windows-DNS-Server-Service |
An administrator has moved the zone %1 to a new location in Active Directory. The zone will be stored in Active Directory at %2. | |
Microsoft-Windows-DNS-Server-Service |
The DNS server is now booting from the registry or directory. The existing server boot file will no longer be read by the DNS server at startup. For any new zones that you add or for changes you make to zone information, you must make them using the DNS console. The previous DNS server boot file has been moved to the %SystemRoot%\System32\Dns\backup directory. To return to using a boot file, use the DNS console and reconfigure the boot method for the server. For more information, see "To change the boot method used by the DNS server" in the online Help. |
|
Microsoft-Windows-DNS-Server-Service |
The DNS server has written a new version of the boot file. Either new zones or changes to existing zone information were made through the DNS console that required the DNS server to update the information in this file. A copy of the previous boot file has been moved to the %SystemRoot%\System32\Dns\backup directory. | |
Microsoft-Windows-DNS-Server-Service |
The DNS server has been reconfigured to boot from a boot file. Current server and zone configuration information has been written to this file. To return to booting from the registry or Active Directory, use the DNS console and reconfigure the boot method for the server. For more information, see "To change the boot method used by the DNS server" in the online Help. |

Microsoft-Windows-DNS-Server-Service |
The DNS server has completed a scavenging cycle: Visited Zones = %1, Visited Nodes = %2, Scavenged Nodes = %3, Scavenged Records = %4. This cycle took %5 seconds. The next scavenging cycle is scheduled to run in %6 hours. The event data will contain the error code if there was an error during the scavenging cycle. |

The DNS server has completed a scavenging cycle but no nodes were visited. Possible causes of this condition include: 1) No zones are configured for scavenging by this server. 2) A scavenging cycle was performed within the last %1 minutes. 3) An error occurred during scavenging. The next scavenging cycle is scheduled to run in %2 hours. The event data will contain the error code if there was an error during the scavenging cycle. |

The DNS server received indication that zone %1 was deleted from the Active Directory. Since this zone was an Active Directory integrated zone, it has been deleted from the DNS server. | |
Microsoft-Windows-DNS-Server-Service |
The DNS server is now starting to load zone %1 in the background. While the zone is being loaded, all DNS updates and zone transfer requests will be refused. | |
Microsoft-Windows-DNS-Server-Service |
The DNS server has completed background loading of zone %1. The zone is now available for updates and zone transfers if allowed by the zone's configuration. It took %2 seconds to load the zone. | |
