W2K8R2 - DFSR-Replication issue - Backlogged files are not replicated-Dfsrprivate

[Falke]

Hi,

I hope I am in the right forum.

 

We have the following strange issue with the replication of a specific replicated folder on the hub server:

 

We have a DFSR environment, that consists f one naming space and 2 replication servers (Windows Server 2008 R2). AD is Windows server 2003.

 

-There are too many backlogged file transactions on the hub server, which will not replicate to the branche server.

-The DFSRPrivate subfolder of the aforementioned folder cannot be accessed on the Windows explorer on that hub server. When I need (Admin) to access that subfolder, I receive the message that this location is not available.

-On the other replication partner that folder can be accessed without any issues.

-Browsing the Eventviewer I found the following EventID (from an earlier day..): 4004, Error 9007 Unable to set root path on both servers.

-The DFSR Logs on the server where this subfolder is inaccessible show that files from that replicated folder cannot be replicated: (File path cannot be specified...)

-The security on both servers are identical.

 

Also to mention, that I recently got the responsibilty for this DFSR environment and I am still a newbie in this area. In addition, I have been searching the net for a while now without success.

 

I would be very grateful if somebody out there could be able to help me on this issue.

 

Thank you very much in advance.

what is the staging quota that you have set ?

If you have created a name space, then make sure that the name space can be seen and added in DFS console on both the machines.

The folders that you are trying to replicate should not have disk quota enabled on them during replication. Also verify the connection topology once from both the ends.
