Branch DP and Boundaries

Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

we recently installed a Branch DP for a remote Site and today we got response from the IT Guy over there that OS Deployment was very slow. When looking at the logfiles we noticed that the content wasn't copied from the Branch DP, but instead it was being copied from the Secondary Site server.

 

Both the Branch DP as the Secondary Site server are set as Protected Site System for the boundary the client falls in.

 

What I found so far (Google) is that the client prefers to use BITS and therefore connects to the Secondary Site server instead of the Branch DP (which uses plain SMB).

 

What is the best way to deal with this?

 

Thanks in advance.

 

Kind Regards,

 

Mario

When both of the DPs are protected with the same boundary, then yes, the client will prefer the DP with BITS enabled. The only thing you can (and maybe should) do, is cut the boundary in pieces, so you can separate the two DPs.

Hi Peter,

 

thanks for the confirmation! That's indeed what me and my colleaugues have come up with.
