Ned Pyle: You’ve probably already started reading about how Windows Server 2008 now supports using Distributed File System Replication (DFSR) technology to synchronize SYSVOL. This means that the legacy File Replication Service (FRS) is no longer necessary and all the DFSR advantages for reliability, scalability, and performance can be realized.
As with any migration, it’s important that you enter and leave in a stable state – we don’t want to fight the domain environment’s issues midstream in the migration after all. So today we will talk about how to validate that replication is working in FRS before you migrate and that DFSR is working when the migration is completed.
