Record the source location, examined part of Active Directory objects, search bases, domain controllers, delegated roles, cmdlet parameters, and the DNS paths used to locate directory services, observed and expected states, owner, and reason for deviation.\nTranslate the conclusion into change control only after documenting dependencies, impact, test method, expected signals, failure signals, and restoration steps. Include Active Directory replication, Windows DNS, domain-controller location, time, network reachability, privileges, and protected credentials, while excluding secrets and sensitive personal or topology data from ordinary tickets.\nVerification and evidence\nBuild a reproducible chain from Introduction below H1; Introduction to the observed environment. Useful domain evidence includes sanitized command transcripts, parameter records, directory exports, authorization records, DNS locator tests, and before-and-after state; label every item with scope, timestamp, collector, and stable identifier.\nLabel this evidence set DSE-20260827-419 so observations, approvals, exceptions, and later rechecks cannot be substituted from another source review.\nKeep before-state evidence, approval, test or change result, exceptions, and after-state evidence together. Use an approved lab, window, or nonproduction path for risky tests. Set a recheck trigger for version, architecture, dependency, vendor, incident, or ownership change. A check proves only what was observed.\nOfficial references\n\nRestore IIS and clean up Active Directory when you uninstall AD FS 2.0 — Microsoft",
