80070070

Error Code 80070070

If you receive Windows Update error 0x80070070 or 80070070 when you use Windows Update, it means that there isn't enough drive space on your PC to install updates.

You can uninstall apps you don't use, delete temporary data (temp, %temp%, prefetch, Software Distribution etc) to free-up space.

Install the patches when sufficient drive space is there on the drive.

Active Directory Integrated Zones

An Active Directory-integrated zone can be defined as an improved version of a primary DNS zone because it can use multi-master replication and the security features of Active Directory. The zone data of Active Directory-integrated zones are stored in Active Directory. Active Directory-integrated zones are authoritative primary zones.  

A few advantages that Active Directory-integrated zone implementations have over standard primary zone implementations are:  

Active Directory replication is faster, which means that the time needed to transfer zone data between zones is far less.  

The Active Directory replication topology is used for Active Directory replication, and for Active Directory-integrated zone replication. There is no longer a need for DNS replication when DNS and Active Directory are integrated.  

Active Directory-integrated zones can enjoy the security features of Active Directory.  

The need to manage your Active Directory domains and DNS namespaces as separate entities is eliminated. This in turn reduces administrative overhead.  

When DNS and Active Directory are integrated; the Active Directory-integrated zones are replicated,  
automatically. Synchronization takes place automatically when new domain controllers are deployed.  
and stored on any new domain controllers
