RPC Failure (AdDnsRpcFailure)


Monitors the ability of the server to initiate a remote procedure call (RPC) . The parameter issue an alert if the DNS server could not initialize the RPC. This parameter monitors the error Event ID 5783 in the System event log. The event source is NETLOGON. The source server listed in the error message was unable to complete a remote procedure call (RPC) call to the destination server. Usually, this means that either the source server could not locate the server in DNS or the RPC interface on the destination server is not working.

Note

The RPC Failure attribute in BMC ProactiveNet Performance Management is referred as the AdDnsRpcFailure parameter in BMC PATROL.

Recommendations
 If the source server could not locate the server in DNS, troubleshoot Active Directory replication failure due to incorrect DNS configuration.
 If this is not a DNS problem, troubleshoot RPC problems.
