OK, on the DC that holds the RID master role:

root at dc1:~# ldbsearch -H /usr/local/samba/private/sam.ldb '(objectClass=rIDSet)' dn rIDNextRID
# record 1
dn: CN=RID Set,CN=MEMBER1,OU=Domain Controllers,DC=samdom,DC=example,DC=com
rIDNextRID: 0

# record 2
dn: CN=RID Set,CN=DC1,OU=Domain Controllers,DC=samdom,DC=example,DC=com
rIDNextRID: 1152

and on my other DC:

root at member1:~# ldbsearch -H /usr/local/samba/private/sam.ldb '(objectClass=rIDSet)' dn rIDNextRID
# record 1
dn: CN=RID Set,CN=MEMBER1,OU=Domain Controllers,DC=samdom,DC=example,DC=com

# record 2
dn: CN=RID Set,CN=DC1,OU=Domain Controllers,DC=samdom,DC=example,DC=com

So as far as I understanding it, you should only have the 'rIDNextRID'
attribute on the DC that holds the RID master role. I suggest you run
'samba-tool dbcheck' on your DCs
