Error: "ERROR: VAS_ERR_NOT_FOUND: could not resolve Host" -
Description
I am getting the following error when I use "vastool join" or "vgptool apply":
Writing vas.conf ... OK
Populating misc cache ... OK
Preparing to apply Group Policy ... OK
Applying Group Policy Settings ... OK

Caching Schema...ERROR:

Failed
What does "cause 6" mean? -
Cause
QAS is attempting to connect to a system that is no longer a Domain Controller (DC). The same DC appears in vastool info servers.
-
Resolution
Re-join the host. This will overwrite (clear) the cache so that the non-existent DC is no longer being contacted. Running vastool info servers again should confirm if it's still being used.
