Explanation:
In order to add a Domain Controller to corp.contoso.com, you need PDC and RID of that domain, not
of the root domain. The Domain Naming Master is needed to add, remove and rename domains in
the forest, i.e. not for individual Domain Controllers.

    Likewise, when attempting to add new objects in AD DS, such as users, computers, or domain controllers, you might notice event ID 16650 in the
    System log indicating that the object cannot be created because the directory service was unable to allocate a relative identifier.
    Network connectivity to the RID master might have been lost or the RID master might have been removed from the network.

    The RID master role and the PDC emulator master role should be owned by the same domain controller in the domain.

    Wouldn’t the PDC would need to be online in order get the correct time, so Kerberos would work, in order to join the domain, before you even get the chance to promote the system to a DC?
