Do not
waste your time trying to use NTFRS to achieve such sync task (large files do
not work fine with this tool). Take a look at an application called
FileReplicationPro at http://www.filereplicationpro.com/

Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] Experiences with DFS.....What exactly do you mean by "add redundancy to our NAS offerings"?Are you worried about single point of failure and are thinking that having two replicated NAS's would allow you to get around that? Or are you trying to load balance because the NAS device isn't keeping up?If you are worrying about single point of failure, then I would suggest increased physical redundancy (e.g things like RAID-5 & RAID-10, multiple power sources, etc..). If you are worried about load balancing then you solution may be more down the path of a highly available SAN instead of NAS (multiple servers connected to the same file system).With 1,000,000+ files and frequent changes any solution is going to have a difficult time replicating the data across the network. You will end up with some type of drift between the two file sets and that may create yet more problems.-Stuart"Oracle is a Tape Application"

Subject: [ActiveDir] Experiences with DFS.....We are thinking of using DFS in order to add redundancy to our NAS offerings. My main question is does anyone have experience using DFS to replicate/keep in sync large amounts of info, i.e. 200+GB, between two or more servers?As always, thank you for the help.Chris FlesherThe University of ChicagoNSIT/DCS1-773-834-8477
