Add DFSR Member to replicate with 2 existing members
Check the POST marked "Answer" on this one. It has a lot of tools, etc. that might help you at least check. As far as the other information, I need to read it again to make sure I understand it before attempting to answer. 🙂
EFDake Hi Edward. Sorry for the delay in my reply :-). I checked out those tools and they will help yes. I have backlog monitoring/scripts already so I check that frequently. Health reports don't seem to generate however as it takes forever and times out. I guess that option isn't working now so maybe once I finally cut over to newer boxes it will work hehe.
Scenario again is Server A and Server B are syncing together. I created server C and D which both are now replicating with C to A , A to C and D to B, B to D respectively. I now need to basically sync, D to C. One if these is less used as far as what server people are connecting to when updating files etc.
Would it be safe to assume and trust that if I added a new member to a replication group that's currently replicating A to B, B to A , C to A and A to C now add in D to C and C to D? I would think since both servers have the data that they sync if any would be very minimal and wouldn't require to much back and forth. But that is my assumption. What are your thoughts on that approach?
Thanks!
