SBS Folder Redirection Issue
I have been asked to take a look at an SBS2011 server that has been running for almost two years. They do not have a lot of complaints, but there is one problem I am having trouble solving. When their old SBS2003 server was migrated to the SBS2011, apparently not all of the old server references were removed. So in some locations I can see references to a now non-existent server, where instead references to the new server name should appear.
One of these places is in the folder redirection, which appears to work fine for users but creates an event log error every time the administrator logs in. There is a recurring event 502, Folder Redirection. "Failed to apply policy and redirect folder "Documents" to \\oldservername\users\admi
Under Group Policy Management > (forest/domain/server) > Small Business Server Folder Redirection > Documents > Settings, the setting shows "path \\oldservername\users\%use
Here's the dilemma. The administrator is not storing any redirected documents and it doesn't really cause a hardship to not have the folder redirection for the administrator account, but almost every user is actively storing files using the redirection and I don't want to make a change that loses track of all of the documents that users already have - which appear to be going to the right place - i.e., \\newservername...etc.
Any thoughts or ideas on this? Thanks!
