Hi,

I restored the last backup with the 4.11.6 setup. This is working fine 
and i can confirm that my AD is set up with a single forwarding zone, 
there is no _msdsc zone. On this 4.11.6 setup also the Windows DNS Tool 
does not complain. When upgrading to 4.12.2 DNS administration fails 
again with WERR_DNS_ERROR_DS_UNAVAILABLE.

I will try the steps described in the MS document  and come back with 
the results.

Best regards,
Olaf
