DNS_ERROR_ZONESCOPE_IS_REFERENCED
DNS_ERROR_ZONESCOPE_IS_REFERENCED means a zone scope is still used by a DNS policy. The server blocks deletion to prevent a policy from pointing to a response scope that no longer exists.
Enumerate policies that point to the scope and decide how their answers should be handled after removal. Repoint or remove those policies first, then delete the now-unreferenced scope as a separate administrative step.
What to do
- Identify the policy references at the relevant zone level.
- Update the policy to another scope or remove the policy through a planned change before removing the scope.
- Verify answers for clients previously matched to that scope after the configuration change.
