2008 R2 DFS
We have seen this random issue across multiple clients (completely separate infrastructure) and are trying to find the root cause and, hopefully, fix the issue. The issue is random missing folder targets when we browse the namespace (domain.local\namespace). The fix is to restart the namespace service on the DFS server. It doesn't happen often - we've seen in twice with two different clients in the last 6 months and there isn't a 'smoking gun' in the logs so we're a little baffled as to the cause.
Any help in figuring out this mystery would be appreciated!
