DFS Export and Recover
I have a question on dfsutil i used this command for the export of the DFS
dfsutil /root:\\example.com\sales /export:c:\NameSpaceBackup
which saves my Link state Root structure my question is if one of my file servers crash and i do a dfsutil Restore with the following command
dfsutil /root:\\example.com\sales /import:c:\NameSpaceBackup
isnt this only recovering the names spaces, that it will not add the new server to the Replication group in order to sync with the remaining Server in the Group ?
dfsutil /root:\\example.com\sales /export:c:\NameSpaceBackup

Windows Server 2003 was based on Windows XP and was released in four editions: Web, Standard, Enterprise and Datacenter. It also had derivative versions for clusters, storage and Microsoft’s Small Business Server. Important upgrades included integrating Internet Information Services (IIS), improvements to Active Directory (AD) and Group Policy (GP), and the migration to Automated System Recovery (ASR).
