samba - Mar 2018 - Demoted dc not completely demoted, maybe?

Replaced as instructed and ran the command. It claimed "success",
however
(RSAT) DNS Manager still shows demoted DC as SOA record.

BTW, this demoted DC is now shut off.

Suggestions?

Try this:

ldbsearch -H /usr/local/samba/private/sam.ldb --cross-ncs --show-binary
-b
'DC=samdom.example.com,CN=MicrosoftDNS,DC=DomainDnsZones,DC=samdom,DC=example,DC=com'
-s sub '(&(objectClass=dnsNode)(DC=@))'

NOTE: it should all be on one line.

It should produce the SOA record (after you make the obvious changes),
what 'dnsRecord' objects does it show ? There should a
'DNS_TYPE_NS'
and a 'DNS_TYPE_A' record for each DC. Is the dead DC amongst them ?

The "DNS_TYPE_NS" records show the correct DC's (both, I have
two).
The "DNS_TYPE_A" records show the correct DC's ip addresses.

The "DNS_TYPE_SOA" shows the demoed DC FQDN in the "mname"
