Add folder targets
Applies To: Windows Server 2003 R2
A folder target is a Universal Naming Convention (UNC) path of a shared folder or another namespace that is associated with a folder in a namespace. Adding multiple folder targets increases the availability of the folder in the namespace.
To add a folder target
Click Start, point to Administrative Tools, and then click DFS Management.
In the console tree, under the Namespaces node, right-click a folder, and then click Add Folder Target.
Type the path to the folder target or click Browse to locate the folder target.
If the folder is replicated using DFS Replication, you can specify whether to add the new folder target to the replication group.
Note
- To perform this procedure, you must be a member of the Local Administrators group on each server that hosts the namespace, or you must have been delegated the ability to manage an existing namespace.
