We have Win 2012 R2 DFS servers that are in the same LAN.<br />
And have noticed replication backlog on quite a few replication groups.<br />
I would like to know if DFS can replicate without using staging space and allow it to use full bandwidth.<br />
Apparently there is a command to configure DFS to not use staging folder but I can't find that in documentation.

Is it possible to not use staging folder for DFS replication for DFS servers in LAN
