Set/re-set active DFS share for all computers in a site

we have groups of computers in two sites that are configured to access files in DFS replicated shares, replicated between servers within each of the two sites.

The other day, I happened to look at the DFS tab on the properties on several of these computers and was surprised to see that the active share/link was actually the server in the other site. I assume that there may have been some outage or slowness that might cause clients to temporarily switch over to the alternate share?, the link between the two sites is slow so if my clients are accessing the share in the other site it is much slower....

I see the similar question being asked in this forum, but what is the correct procedure to "reset" the active share on the DFS share for my client computers so that they are all defaulting to the server within the same site?

thanks!
