So when you noticed that the data was not there did you check your DFS logs to see if there was a problem. We are currently using Windows 2008 and the only times we have seen this behavior were listed in the logs showing the DFS errors. The other reason was also listed in the logs, depending on the application that is creating/updating the file is file closure. DFS will not update a file that is still open, until the file is closed.

When attempting to access the DFS share, we noticed that sometimes the data is not there, depending on which server we access at the moment. I'm wondering what others are using for duplicating data between servers for D/R purposes? Is there some software out there that doesn't cost a bunch of money that'll duplicate the data in real-time or near real-time (within minutes of changes, I want the changes replicated.) Thanks!
