What should you identify?

A.
A possible reason could be that the system lacks an NTFS partition on which the Sysvol directory could be created.

B.
A possible cause could be the lack of a Windows Server 2008 DNS server on the network.

C.
A possible cause could be that the TCP/IP configuration on the new server is incorrect.

D.
A possible cause could be the domain reached its limit for the amount of domain controllers.

Explanation:
The Sysvol directory has to be created on an NTFS partition. In the case of such a partition being unavailable, the server will not be able to be promoted to a domain controller. An error in the network configuration may impede the server from connecting to another domain controller in the environment.
