All,
I'm re-doing the DFSR config for the file servers in our US and AU
offices. The US has a bunch of directories that will be replicated to
AU (but not back). No big deal, but the PowerShell script I'm writing
is killing me. I don't know if I'm running into a time out problem, or
what it might be.
I'm running the script from Redmond on my laptop.
Here's the script, which should Just Work(tm):
----------
$NewDFSR = import-csv -Delimiter "`t" c:\Batchfiles\data\NewDFSR.csv
New-DfsReplicationGroup -GroupName US2AU-Engineering
$GroupName = Get-DfsReplicationGroup US2AU-Engineering
Foreach ($Line in $NewDFSR)
{
$GroupName = $Line.GroupName
$SourceComputer = $Line.SourceComputer
$FolderName = $Line.FolderName
$SourceContentPath = $Line.SourceContentPath
$SourceStagingPathQuotaInMB = $Line.SourceStagingPathQuotaInMB
$SourcePrimaryMember =
[System.Convert]::ToBoolean($Line.SourcePrimaryMember)
$DestinationComputer = $Line.DestinationComputer
$DestinationContentPath = $Line.DestinationContentPath
$DestinationReadOnly =
[System.Convert]::ToBoolean($Line.$Line.DestinationReadOnly)
New-DfsReplicatedFolder -GroupName $GroupName -FolderName $FolderName
Add-DfsrMember -GroupName $GroupName -ComputerName
$SourceComputer, $DestinationComputer
Add-DfsrConnection -GroupName $GroupName -SourceComputerName
$SourceComputer -DestinationComputerName $DestinationComputer
Set-DfsrMembership -GroupName $GroupName -FolderName $FolderName
-ComputerName $SourceComputer -ContentPath $SourceContentPath
-PrimaryMember $SourcePrimaryMember -StagingPathQuotaInMB
$SourceStagingPathQuotaInMB -Force
Set-DfsrMembership -GroupName $GroupName -FolderName $FolderName
-ComputerName $DestinationComputer -ContentPath
$DestinationContentPath -ReadOnly $DestinationReadOnly -Force
}
----------
But it fails the Add-DfsrMember command, when trying to add the AU file server:
----------
Add-DfsrMember : Could not add the computer to the replication
group. Computer: ZAUFS01P Replication group: "US2AU-Engineering" The
remote procedure call failed
At C:\BatchFiles\New-DfsrConfiguration.ps1:19 char:2
+ Add-DfsrMember -GroupName $GroupName -ComputerName $SourceCompute ...
+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+ CategoryInfo : NotSpecified: (ZAUFS01P:String)
[Add-DfsrMember], DfsrException
+ FullyQualifiedErrorId :
Add-DfsrMember.NonTerminatingOMException,Microsoft.DistributedFileSystemReplication.Commands.AddDfsrMemberCommand
----------
However, if I RDP to that file server, I see this, which to me
indicates that it *is* listening:
----------
C:\Windows\system32>winrm enumerate winrm/config/listener
Listener [Source="GPO"]
Address = *
Transport = HTTP
Port = 5985
Hostname
Enabled = true
URLPrefix = wsman
CertificateThumbprint
ListeningOn = 10.212.1.30, 127.0.0.1, ::1, fe80::a9e7:6f85:8115:b4ed%16
----------
Heck, I even stood up wireshark on my laptop, from which I'm running
this script, and see traffic to that server, though I can't quite
figure out the conversation - but I have a 48kb capture file detailing
the transaction for the attempted configuration of a single directory,
if anyone wants that.
