I am new to DFS/FRS and I just set up one of our remote offices' file servers to Replicate to a central NAS for disaster recovery. Seems to be working great. I did the following:
Set up a DFS Root.
Added the source and destination shares as targets
Turned on two-way replication
My question is: Where is the proper place to put the Frs-staging folder? There is 1 folder on each remote office that I want to mirror to the NAS:
D:\Office1
The nas is set up with a folder for each office as follows:
S:\Backups\Office1
S:\Backups\Office2
S:\Backups\Office3
...
S:\Backups\Office9
For my first Root, I set the FRS-Staging folders to be:
D:\frs-staging (source)
S:\frs-staging (target)
Is this ok? Is it ok to put 8 more roots pointing to s:\ for it's frs-staging folder? Any other comments on my setup?
Thanks,
Andrew
