Hi,
I have specific task and I think DFS replication would be perfect solution. But not sure how to adjust it to specific needs.
I have 2 servers ServerA and ServerB which are both member servers. On both servers there is an application installed.
Now ServerA is primary server for this application and ServerB is cold server that just seats there in case that ServerA is down. What is important in this scenario that there is only one folder named Jobs that these two servers need to replicate. Users are not concerned about this they only need their application running.
So what I would like to do is to setup DFS replication between ServerA and ServerB. I dont think I need namespace since users will never see this folder it is application specific.
How would I set up this scenario. I know I have to install DFS replication service on both servers and then what.
Most people suggest name space and I am wondering do I need that. All I need is that folder named Jobs is replicated between ServerA and ServerB. If i can avoid creating third folder on the storage I would like to do that otherwise application may crash.
Is it possible to setup replication between ServerA and ServerB. For example both servers should replicate F:\AppServer\Jobs folder. These folders exist on both servers at the moment and on ServerA users are making changes which should replicate to ServerB in the same folder
Just as a note: These servers are in the same subnet and replication will not take place over WAN.
I tried to search on google but some just keep saying users users users.
This is not concerning users at all it is just to replicate two folders between two servers
Is this doable
