I have a customer with one DC that called having issues.. After looking into it, it pointed to a DC issue..
I rebooted the sole DC (also a VM) and it booted into safe mode / DSRM.. It's a 2008 R2 server.. I have never dealt with DSRM and had no idea what to do.. Rebooted again and same thing..
After hitting the google I figured I'd take a look into msconfig.. Under the boot menu > boot options safe boot was checked and active directory repair was selected..
Has anyone ever seen this get selected? I want to make sure this isn't something that HAS to be manually selected as if it is I'm wondering if they got hacked or something..
Thanks
