Windows same SID error

Created#

Provision a new Windows Server 2016 and setup as new Active Directory Forest.
On the 2nd Window Server 2016 and when I try to join domain, it gave me SID error due to same SID in the image.
What is the way to have different SID for the Windows Image?

HI

Run sysprep.exe in a command line to generate a new SID.

Hi Hanneng,

I had the same issue of same SID, I need to join machine to domain, I used sysprep to change the SID, after restart I can not login into ECS, when I check on VNC console.. black boot creen is shown..seems like it can not find windows bootable disk.
please advise.

Thanks.

I was able to fix the issue using sysprep command with parameters.

 if you save a Windows VM to a template and then redeploy another copy with the intention of adding both machines to the same domain, a “duplicate SID” error displays. This error only occurs when you copy a VM in an environment to the same environment




Hope this helps
