In this final scenario we will see a file being replicated successfully, but where the replication appears to be very slow. A bandwidth throttle has been configured within the DFSR replication group schedule to restrict traffic to 128Kbps. This is useful in understanding how throttling works as well as determining that slow replication has been configured intentionally.

 

(throttleupstream - Dfsr00010 - 2008.log and throttledownstream - Dfsr00012 - 2008.log)

 

These are two Windows Server 2008 servers called 2008x86SRV10 and 2008x86SRV11 in the contoso.com domain. The logs are from 2008x86SRV10 (the upstream) and 2008x86SRV11 (the downstream). The replication schedule is at 128 Kilobits per second and the file being replicated is named “imageres.dll”. Debug logging severity is set to 5 to see additional details.
