Hello everyone. I've red a bunch of articles about DFS targets and their failover, but still cannot understand how failover works in one AD site.
I have two 2008 R2 servers with DFS role, domain based namespace. I want to create replication between two shares in DFS. So, I still have 2 questions:
1. What I need to configure so users can access only first target on DFS share? i.e.:
\\domain.local\shares (root namespace)
ShareX - target on srv1
ShareX - target on srv2
I want users to access dfs target only from srv1, and go to target (ShareX on srv2) automatically in case of srv1 fail.
2. Which best practice: to create two targets and then create replication between then, or create a separate replication group with all shares?
