A lot of the engineers overlook this step when they migrate from Windows 2003 to new versions.įor FRS to DFS migration, we make use of the Dfsrmig.exe utility. Nonetheless, migrating FSMO roles WILL NOT migrate SYSVOL replication from FRS to DFS. Since windows server 2003 has long gone out of support, most individuals already performed or still in search of migrating to the newest versions.
However, Windows Server 2008 and later makes use of Distributed File System (DFS) for the replication. Windows Server 20 R2 makes use of File Replication Service (FRS) to duplicate SYSVOL folder content to different domain controllers. This folder path can be defined whilst you set up the active directory. The default path for SYSVOL folder is %SystemRoot%\SYSVOL. All of the domain controllers in the network will replicate the content of the SYSVOL folder. SYSVOL is a folder shared by the domain controller to hold its logon scripts, group policies and different items associated to AD.
For many customers, this text solely applies, you probably have or have had a Window 2003/ 2003 R2 Domain Controller in your environment that you’re planning to get rid of.
