It sounds like after demote Samba was not able to remove some lingering
objects.
You should remove any entries with the name bdc in your DNS. Look in
your domain zone as well as _msdcs.cimg.local. Search all sub folders
(ie., _sites,_tcp ect.)I find its easier to use Microsoft DNS manager
for this.
Confirm in Active Directory Users and Computers that the DC bdc is
deleted from the 'Domain Controllers' OU.
Finally open Active Directory Sites and Services and expand
'Default-First-Site-Name'. Delete the bdc server if it exists. Expand
dc1 and dc3 and remove any 'automatically generated' site links
referencing bdc if they exist. Use cation and double check before
deleting that it's bdc you are deleting.
Finally let the other DC's replicate the changes you made for a few
minutes. It should be relatively instant but just to be sure wait. Then
run '/samba/sbin/samba_dnsupdate' on dc2.
