Domain Master Browser Failure

Based on the preceding information on browsers and subnets, notice what happens if a Domain Master Browser fails (see Figure 10.9). In the event of a failure, users on the entire network are limited to their own individual subnets, assuming they have a Master Browser for their subnet, of course. If there is not a Master Browser within your subnet, you are left with no browsing capabilities whatsoever. Without a Domain Master Browser, no complete overall browse list exists of the entire domain, and within three announcement periods all other servers not on the local subnet are removed from the browse list. You then need to either promote a Backup Domain Controller to perform the role of Domain Master Browser, or bring the downed Domain Master Browser back online before the time limit expires for its three announcements. Remember the Backup Domain Controller does not automatically promote itself, and once a new Domain Master Browser is elected it will take time to collect the browse list from all the different subnets. There is no way you can force the browse list.
