From the Replication node, you can manage aspects of DFS Replication, such as the schedule and bandwidth usage, file and subfolder filters, and the topology (a framework of replication paths between members). On the Replicated Folders tab in the details pane, you can also view the namespace path that corresponds to the replicated folder, as shown in the following figure.

If you navigate back to the Tools folder in the Namespaces node, notice that the Replication tab in the details pane shows that the Tools folder is being replicated using DFS Replication.

If one of the folders targets contained data when you enabled DFS Replication, you can verify that replication has completed by clicking the Folder Targets tab, right-clicking the folder target that initially held no data, and then clicking Open in Explorer. After the initial replication delay, the files in this folder target should match the files in the target that initially held the data.

Another way to view the status of replication is to create a diagnostic report. You will do this in the following task.

7.5.8.Create a Diagnostic Report

In this task, you create a diagnostic report to check the status of replication. The diagnostic report is an .html file that includes error and warning events, replication statistics, backlogged files, and other information for each member of the replication group.

To create a diagnostic report:

1.In the console tree of the DFS Management snap-in, under the Replication node, right-click the \\domain\Public\Software\Tools replication group, and then click Create Diagnostic Report.

2.Follow the steps in the Diagnostic Report Wizard and supply the information in the following fields:

oPath and Name - Accept the defaults.
