Just add the server as a DFS member and set up replication. Improve this answer. Note that both servers are listed.

You create a shared folder named Backup on both Srv1 and Srv2 2.

On the Before You Begin page, click Next. On the File Services page, click Next. On the Namespace Configuration page, click Next. On the Confirmation page, click Install.

On the Results page, click Close. New Folder Target option, Click Browse. Ensure that the server name is set to the target server. Active Directory replication latencies may delay this change operation from propagating to the remote domain controllers. On any namespace servers that are hosting the namespace, verify the removal of the DFS namespace registry configuration data.

If other functioning namespaces are hosted on the server, make sure that the registry key of only the inconsistent namespace is removed. To remove the DFS namespace registry configuration data, follow these steps:. In Registry Editor, locate the configuration registry key of the namespace at the appropriate path by using one of the following paths:. If a registry key that is named identically to the inconsistent namespace is found, use the Dfsutil. The servername placeholder is the name of the server hosting the namespace and the sharename placeholder is the name of the root share.

Or, delete the key manually. Remove the file share that was associated with the namespace from the namespace servers. Failure to follow this step may cause the recreation of the namespace to fail because DFS Namespaces may block the namespace creation.

Changing the DFS namespace configuration data should only be considered after you evaluate all other recovery options. We recommend that you regularly obtain backups of the system state for the DFS namespace servers and for the domain controllers of domain-based DFS namespaces.

These backups may be used to restore the namespace configuration to full operation without the risk of having inconsistent DFS namespace configuration data.

The server you specified already hosts a namespace with this name. Please select another namespace name or another server to host the namespace. If the existing shared folder is used, the security setting specified within the Edit Settings dialog box will not apply. To have a shared folder created with those settings, you must first remove the existing shared folder.

The namespace is not unique in the domain in which the namespace server was created. You must go back to choose a new namespace name, or change the namespace type to stand-alone. Cannot create a file when that file already exists. The system cannot find the file specified. The device is not ready for use.
