Setting up DFS in Windows Server 2012 R2 with Replication
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 10 сен 2024
- This video demonstrates installing Distributed File System (DFS) on two servers, creating a namespace, creating shared folders, and setting up a replication group to synchronize data between two servers. This can be used to preserve WAN bandwidth, offer fault tolerance, and balance client load between two servers.
Within a lots of DFS tutorial, I found this one is best.
My boy, I cant even begin to explain how glad i am people like you exist. Im about 30 hours deep into this lab and you saved my bacon. Thank you.
This video is 5 years old, but really helpful. I gave presentation while using this. Thanks Patrick.
this is the best explanation for replication i found.. thank you so much
Thanks for explaining such a simple way great work... 👍
Thank you so much for this video.
I saw it and did practice on my virtual box. It really worked. I am learning so much now.....
You Explained it better than my paid subscription. I had to sign into my RUclips account just to like this vid. Actually understand DFS clearly now. Thanks.
Because of you I was able to do my project.
Thank you for this Patrick! I have 3 sites that I needed this setup for. Just finished configuring all this up. Just waiting on the replication to begin before we remove the individual mapped drives to the server and roll out the domain share.
Excellent explanation with example. Thanks Patrick for sharing nice tutorial.
Thank-you so much Patrick... You made this dry subject look so interesting... Cheers!!
step by step, as simple as it gets, well done 👍
Excellent step by step explanation. Thank you!
Patrick Hornung you're the one ,thank you so much . keep giving us good things . one love
Thanks so much, the best video on this topic by far.
The guide is super clear and easy to understand , thanks op
WOW. It is the best explanation on DFS. Thanks Man
Excellent explanation. Thanks very much!
This was a great Video ! Thank you so much. Made DFS really easy to understand and setup!
Great Video Patrick, easy to follow and pickup.
Fantastic quality video. Thank you!
Great Video, easy to follow and pickup.
Thank you very much very helpful. I really appreciate it. You are a life saver.
wonderful demo...thank you
Thank you so much . This helped me a lot to understand
You're very welcome!
very helpful Patrick, thanks a lot
best explaination ever
Such a great job explaining thanks again
Awesome!!!! Great work
Great video and explanation.Thank you!!
Can you please suggest what all ports are required between server 1 and server 2 if they are not DC and are in different network.
great explanation and work Thanks buddy
It has helped me a lot, thanks
Very informative video, thanks!
May I ask you?Can I use powershell or CLI to create a replication group to synchronize the share folders between the two server ? because i need to use CLI way to complete my school project🤣
Thanks for your video
BEST I've seen. Thanks
Dope Video!
Hi..i have a problem in making a replicating folder. the error is(There are insufficient permission to create the replication group). and i cannot add my account in delegate management permission in replication...
Perfect! Worked for me! thank you so much
Do we need 2pcs for this practical
I'm on the screen for this practical plzz tell me
Im migrating data from one to another. How do I stop the synchronization and delete the old path without affecting the new one? Last time I test I deleted the old folder target and it deleted the both. Advice please.
Superb bro 👌👌👌
hi what if the the file FInanceData are being modified at both side and replication takes place? Will there be a conflict?
brilliant.
Awesome video! It helped a lot.
Thanks for your video. Is it possible if server1 down and client start using edit on server2 but when server1 up then server1 can synce from server2 or not ? thanks
Yes. When Server1 comes back online, it will synchronize the files and folders as soon as possible. The synchronization is a two-way synchronization, so it doesn't matter which server has a change - both servers will end up with the same files.
Great VIdeo!!! Patrick... I could use this method to "upgrade" the servers to 2019 I mean if I replicate the 2016 server to a 2019 after that I could deleted the 2016 without problem?
Hi, nice video however i have few questions if you can answer.
Serve1 was primary server, if we will make any changes from server2 will the changes will be replicated. in case we have multiple servers and primary goes down.
Have you uploaded more videos of DFSR, i.e reporting, backlogs, troubleshooting related. If yes, please share link. Thanks
I love how you sound like TheNewBoston.
thanks a lot for the great explanation. I have a question....what happens if we delete the files in server1 (primary)?
at 13:56 When i Click To My Server To Open That Folder..It Give Error Location is not available..Why is that so..
Many thanks . crystal clear
do you use the same principle between two trusted domains?
Hey, hope you will see this message. thanks for your video. i was wondering if you have and advise
i accidentally deleted The DFS configuration Data queried by DFSUtil is stored within the following location within Active Directory: CN=Dfs-Configuration,CN=System,DC=
Please help.Thanks
Thanks alot, however should I use namespaces, or could I go directly for the replication
well done, heaps thanks.
Thanks for the great tutorial. I have a question, what if I have folders within a folder, do I need to set the permission to all the folders?
Hello, this video is pretty good but I'm having an issue when I add the 2nd target folder. When I do so, it says the folder couldn't be validated. I made sure both folders on the servers had the same name and permissions and I also restarted the DFS Replication service but with no luck
how we can do on Cloud bas server I mean one server is hosted in Canada one in USA with live ip
very cool
very well explained ...
Excellent Video , Presentation ._
Great video. Can this be done with one of the locations set on a NAS? Or with something else than DFS.
How to do reverse replication ? server2 to server1 for same path ?
Can you do this on between SVR2019 and SVR2022?
Thank you so much bro love uuu
Will the permission policies be replicated also?
Please my namespace type is Stand alone by default and the preview reads
I'm getting the same problem, have you found a resolution
very nice thanks!
Awesome vid!
Great video. Is it possible to migrate a fileserver to a new fileserver in this way and then shut down the old fileserver? Will end users lose mapped drives? Thanks!
Yes, you can do that if you map your users' drives using the \\domain
amespace\share format. If you use \\server
amespace\share then they will lose their mappings.
@@PatrickHornung Thanks man! :)
Great Work buddy!!!
Very helpful tutorial. when I setup DFS /R the target drive selected was C:, I don't know how it happened may be my ADD? If I want to change it to drive D: what steps do I take? anyone???
Love this video.
Very well done on all levels.
Have a question for you.
I am going to do this on a web server, so, working with the InetPub\wwwroot folder
Would this be the route to go, in order to copy over all data that has changed between the servers?
(I am learning all this, so it is all being done on an Intel Test Server with VMware, running many Virtual machines, on one system. This summer, this will all become a reality with new servers, but right now, I am just trying to learn as much as possible to make sure I am fully prepared and ready for the task, for when the new Dell servers arrive.
I am looking at having, at the last, 3 physical servers, with about 4 VM web servers per machine, so, I will always have a backup somewhere, within the mix of systems, in case one of the 3-servers goes down, there will be another server there to take its place in the pool.)
So, any information and advice, helpful links, or more of your excellent videos, will be very appreciated.)

To answer my own question.
YES.
And once again, I had to pull this video out to watch it, as I had forgotten a few things.
Great work, and thanks, once again.
Thank you!
what happens when server 1 goes down? then the users wont be able to access the dfs share?
They will be able to access server 2 if one is down.
Grate Job Bro..
Thanks for the video ...Can please help me to make it from Bi Direction to Unidirectional.. as I want to replicate from primary to secondary only .. not from secondary to primary.
how do you stop replications?
Well created just the way You did.. but my second server is not getting the same files from server 1.
reply ASAP
Each Folder Target MUST be on a different server. Can't have 2 targets on the same server.
Thank you..
All looks great until one day replication stops and you need to troubleshoot it.
I am taking over multiple customers with incorrect dns and network setup's and recovering dfs replication is always problematic...
what did you do ?
can explain ftp sites
Wellexplained path
Very confusing u made it unnecessary large with lot of words not needed
