We suggest that you keep a handful of central DCs in this list (DnsAvoidRegisterRecords is not set). To minimize the delay seen during DC search, set DnsAvoidRegisterRecords or the policy values for all branch-class writable domain controller. Therefore, you encounter a delay or failure when your only local domain controller is a RODC. Without the flag, the DC locator travels a long way to find a RWDC and might eventually fail to find one. This flag tells the Active Directory Service Interfaces (ADSI) and Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) component that an RODC is sufficient. When the application deployment client-side extension looks for a domain controller to create a domain controller session, the client-side extension does not include the ADS_READONLY_SERVER flag. When this delay occurs, the following event is logged:Ĭompleted Software Installation Extension Processing in 688323 milliseconds.

In this situation, the DC locator probes each RWDC that is returned from the DNS to determine whether it is a better candidate than the local RODC. The delay occurs when the RODC is the local domain controller and when many RWDCs are available for access through DNS. There is another symptom in which the GPO that has software installation settings is applied very slowly (for example, over ten minutes).
