still chasing AD glitches

For some reason, the AD points to the secondary domain controller and that seems to cause other connection glitches logging into a SQL server and getting RDP to work on a workstation. Another workstation gets a trust relationship fail event logging in.
Most of the rest of the small network works fine and the whole thing worked for over half a year or more.
To make life worse, the problems are intermittent
Sometimes, but not always, the problem clears up with a reboot of the domain controllers, both of which are Hyper-V hosted on the main host and the backup host respectively.
Both of those hosts do not have any AD roles. Should they?

the wording alone shifts how people read this which makes the reaction pretty predictable That’s what changes the context.

Putting bias aside, there’s a gap between the message and the outcome which is why the comments look the way they do Feels like there’s more coming here. That’s just my read on it.

At first glance, the timing matters more than people admit and that’s where the disagreement starts That’s the key detail here. Interested to see the follow-up. Could be wrong, but that’s how it comes across.

From a neutral view, the direction makes sense but the details are messy which turns this into more of a debate Let’s see what happens next.
