Supporting Dfs

  • Article

This section focuses on supporting distributed file systems. Activities such as monitoring Dfs activity, maintaining the Dfs configuration, and troubleshooting Dfs problems are covered.

Because domain-based Dfs relies on FRS for file and root replication, you can use FRS support methods to resolve Dfs problems. For example, with FRS you can:

  • Use Network Monitor to view counters associated with FRS performance objects.

  • Use Event Viewer to filter and observe FRS activity.

  • Use FRS logging to analyze Dfs problems.
