Did you try this more than once? I've seen issues where AD replication doesn't keep up with the wizard. Mike Crowley Check out My Blog!

Hello, Yes I have tried it several times over more than an hour. Bill

Are you adding the server from the Active Server or from the server you wish to add? Try the latter.Casper Pieterse, Principle Consultant - UC, Dimension Data South Africa, Microsoft Certified Master: Exchange 2007 / 2010

Network name 'dag-1' is not online. Please check that the IP address configuration for the database availability group is correct According to the error above, MBXD-02 has some trouble to contact dag-1. Please verify if there’s any issue to contact dag-1’s NetBOIS or FQDN from MBXD-02 Please run “DCDiag /v /a” and “NetDiag /v” to check the health of DC and connection to DC from MBXD-02 Please check the status of all resources in the “Failover Cluster Management” console Please check the IP configuration as mentioned in error information Deploying High Availability and Site Resilience Also, I saw “169.254.62.47” IP address in the log, why you have such IP address on MBXD-02?
