CAUSE
This issue may occur if the Schema Master Server object is no longer valid (the server has been deleted).
RESOLUTION
To resolve this issue, run the following command-line utility:
dcdiag /s:dc-server-name /v /test:knowsofroleholders
Verify that the Role Schema Owner is pointing to a valid server and that it is available. If the Role Schema Owner is not pointing to a valid server, refer to the following Microsoft Knowledge Base article for information about how to resolve this issue.
