DnsServerADZone: Subsequent runs fail after the initial deployment succeeds #309

Problem description

Using DSC v3 and the DnsServerADZone resource, the initial "config set" succeeds, but subsequent runs fail with "Exception: The parameter is incorrect. "

It appears that both ReplicationScope and DynamicUpdate are being passed to the Set-DnsServerPrimaryZone function. However these two params are part of different parameter sets.

Suggested solution

No solution currently. I'm new to DSC, but am keen to assist further as my knowledge grows.
