Applies To: Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2003 R2, Windows Server 2003 with SP1, Windows Server 2003 with SP2, Windows Server 2008, Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows Server 8 Beta

To check version number consistency between servers

  1. Open WINS.

  2. In the console tree, click the applicable WINS server.

    Where?

    • WINS/applicable WINS server

  3. On the Action menu, click Verify Version ID Consistency.

  4. When prompted if you want to continue, click Yes to start this operation.

Notes

  • To open WINS, click Start, click Control Panel, double-click Administrative Tools, and then double-click WINS.

  • This operation gets the Owner-to-Highest-Version-ID mappings from different WINS servers. It checks the consistency of the WINS databases at all tested servers by ensuring that each server always has the highest version ID among the network of WINS servers for any records that it owns.

  • Checking version ID number consistency can be resource-intensive when there are a large number of WINS servers tested.

Information about functional differences

  • Your server might function differently based on the version and edition of the operating system that is installed, your account permissions, and your menu settings. For more information, see Viewing Help on the Web.
