Test-MtAdRootDseSynchronizedStatus

SYNOPSIS​

Checks the Root DSE synchronization status.

SYNTAX​

Test-MtAdRootDseSynchronizedStatus [-ProgressAction <ActionPreference>] [<CommonParameters>]

DESCRIPTION​

The Root DSE (Directory Service Agent) represents the top of the directory tree and provides information about the directory server. The isSynchronized attribute indicates whether the directory server has completed its initial synchronization with replication partners.

A value of TRUE indicates the server is fully synchronized. A value of FALSE indicates synchronization is still in progress.

This is important for:

  • Ensuring directory consistency across domain controllers
  • Verifying replication health
  • Troubleshooting authentication issues
