Hi Everybody,
We are having an issue with DFS that I cannot seem to find a resolve for. Here are all the stats
we have 2 x Servers running Windows Server 2008. Both have DFS setup on them. The servers have 4 x replication groups. 3 of the 4 replication groups are functioning correctly. The 4th replication group has 2 replicated folders that are not functioning correctly. The other folders are fine.
The problem with these replicated folders is that files are replicating only 1 way.
I have performed the following Troubleshooting Steps:
- Ran a DFS Health Report - the report came back with no errors but displays a backlog of files to be transferred on the two failed directories
- Looked through the event logs on both servers - There are no entries in the log thatprovide any clues
- Checked to see if quotas were the issue - No quotas set on either server
- Checked the files to see if the temporary attribute was set - it wasn't
- Investigated the Debug logs on the Server that does not distribute files - Found the following items:

Can anybody shed any light on what these messages in the logs mean and a suggested course of action?
I am inclined to recreate the replicated folder in DFS to see if that resolves the issue but I cannot seem to find a step-by-step process on how to effectively do this.
I am more than happy to provide any additional details if required.
Looking forward to your response.
Regards,
Jacob
