DFS R2 Change Local Path

Asked by kerm007 in Installation, Windows 2003 Server, Server Applications

Tags: Microsoft Server 2003 R2, DFS, Replication

Hello,

I have Windows Server 2003 R2, I use DFS to replicate files across multiple sites. I want to change the letter of the replicated files on the master server.

Currently, I have:
d:\shared (server 1)
d:\shared (server 2)
d:\shared (server 3)

I would like:
e:\shared (server 1)
d:\shared (server 2)
d:\shared (server 3)

I copy the contents of d:\shared (server 1) to e:\shared (server 1) with robocopy d:\shared e:\shared /CopyAll /dcopy: t /E /R:0 with robocopy version XP026.

I know that I can change the path in ADSI Edit but this will resync my entire folder.

Someone had the same issue http://74.125.93.132/search?q=cache:PJwDUcKbA6QJ:www.experts-exchange.com/OS/Microsoft_Operating_Systems/Server/2003_Server/Q_23786761.html+dfs+change+path+replicated+folder&cd=1&hl=fr&ct=clnk, but his solution is to modify the path into replicated folders tab, I have nothing to change in this tab.

Thank you for your help
