FRS Technical Reference

File Replication service (FRS) is a technology that replicates files and folders stored in the SYSVOL shared folder on domain controllers and Distributed File System (DFS) shared folders. When FRS detects that a change has been made to a file or folder within a replicated shared folder, FRS replicates the updated file or folder to other servers. Because FRS is a multimaster replication service, any server that participates in the replication of a shared folder can generate changes. In addition, FRS can resolve file and folder conflicts to make data consistent among servers.
