The NetBIOS domain name is already being used


hi installing domain controller on windows server 2012 r2.  here have done.

  1. rename computer name "dcus" , reboot.
  2. install domain controller role.
  3. promote domain controller , during configuration have specified root domain name "mydomain.com".  when gets netbios screen automatically use name "mydomain".  because want keep netbios name same hostname, changed "dcus".

the problem happens when tried change netbios name "dcus".  after press next, see message "the netbios domain name being used".  can let me know why case?

following want achieve.

  1. users use login "mydomain\username".  if domain name registered icann hello.com, it'd "hello\username".
  2. primary domain controller sit in why hostname of pdc called "dcus".
  3. backup domain controller sit in asia can name other server's hostname "dcap".
  4. netbios name same hostname dc it'd "dcus", , asia dc it'd "dcap".

any idea if achievable , how can prevent error showing?

hi realized wizard asking netbios name domain, rather netbios name host.
