[Samba] Error demoting

[Mike Ray]

Jonis- 

Are you running this on the DC that you originally provisioned the domain on? 
If that is the case, this has been the behavior for several months now and I was never able to get to the bottom of it, nor able to demote/remove that original DC. 

However, in my experience, the command works just fine on any non-original DCs. Is this the case for you? 

While certainly not ideal, having one old relic sit around in your directory probably isn't a deal breaker.

Subject: [Samba] Error demoting 

Hi. 

I'm trying to demote my samba4, but i'm getting an error: 

[root at adteste bin]# ./samba-tool domain demote -U administrator 
ERROR: Current DC is still the owner of 2 role(s), use the role 
command to transfer roles to another DC 

The thing is that all roles are transfered to my another controller, 
as you can see (SERVER2): 

[root at adteste bin]# ./samba-tool fsmo show 
InfrastructureMasterRole owner: CN=NTDS 
Settings,CN=SERVER2,CN=Servers,CN=Default-First-Site-Name,CN=Sites,CN=Configuration,DC=fearp,DC=usp,DC=br 
RidAllocationMasterRole owner: CN=NTDS 
Settings,CN=SERVER2,CN=Servers,CN=Default-First-Site-Name,CN=Sites,CN=Configuration,DC=fearp,DC=usp,DC=br 
PdcEmulationMasterRole owner: CN=NTDS 
Settings,CN=SERVER2,CN=Servers,CN=Default-First-Site-Name,CN=Sites,CN=Configuration,DC=fearp,DC=usp,DC=br 
DomainNamingMasterRole owner: CN=NTDS 
Settings,CN=SERVER2,CN=Servers,CN=Default-First-Site-Name,CN=Sites,CN=Configuration,DC=fearp,DC=usp,DC=br 
SchemaMasterRole owner: CN=NTDS 
Settings,CN=SERVER2,CN=Servers,CN=Default-First-Site-Name,CN=Sites,CN=Configuration,DC=fearp,DC=usp,DC=br 

So, what's those 2 other roles and how can i change?
