I'm concerned with a set up we have for a client. We are looking to replace their on-site file server as it is on its last legs. It replicates to a server in our hosting facility. The two servers are Server 2003 Standard R2 SP2.
There is one replication group with 5 associated folders. There are currently backlogs against 3 of these folders. I have restarted the dfsr service, there are no events showing indicating any problems and the Health Report only shows the following
warnings:
Hosted Server (3 warnings) (View Server

replicated folder Archives. We need this to be up to date. There is another server (the replacement) that is in the topology that is only connected to the hosted server. Until this replacement is up to date, there is no point in us providing this to the client. Could anyone help me with further diagnosis of this? |
