I have two datacenters, New York and Los Angeles. Our primary datacenter is
New York, while our backup is Los Angeles.

We have 50 offices, each in their own site. I would like all domain
controllers to sync directly to our domain controllers in New York. However,
if New York goes offline, they should sync to our Los Angeles datacenter.

At this point, I have created three site links:

New York <-> Los Angeles (Cost 100, replication time 15 minutes)
New York <-> Office A (Cost 100, replication time 1 hour)
Los Angeles <-> Office A (Cost 500, replication time 1 hour)

However, when I did a test of bringing the domain controllers offline in New
York, KCC did not recreate the replication entries. Is there something I'm
missing here?

Thanks,

John
 
Is site link bridging enabled?

No, "bridge all site links" is disabled and there are no site link bridges.

Have you disabled the KCC and Intersite topolgy generator. Some admins do
this when they create their own topology. Verify that this has not been
done. Have you checked the DS event logs on your DCs for errors. If the
KCC has problems creating links it should log errors there.
