Hi,

I found this error in Event Viewer > DFS Replication

I tried to follow this
https://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/1206.dfsr-event-1202-dfs-replication.aspx

Then run command Dfsrdiag pollad /verbose

Operation Failed and it gives me an error

    Hello @Ralph Justin Macarat

    1) On DFSR server that has the errors from the output run DFSRDiag POLLAD
    2) Stop the DFS Replication service
    3) Go to the drive that holds the replica_ files for the RG such as F:\System Volume Information\DFSR\Config and rename the replica_.xml files to replica_.old

    Note: You may need to take ownership of the System Volume Information folder.

    4) Go to the C:\System Volume Information\DFSR\Config and rename the Volume_.xml files to replica_.old
    5) Start the DFS Replication service
    6) Check in the replica_ drive (i.e.- F:\System Volume Information\DFSR\Config) and C:\System Volume Information\DFSR\Config for the new xml files and in the registry at HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\DFRS\Access Checks\Replication Groups for the values pertaining to the RG as well as HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\DFRS\Parameters\Replication Groups

    7)Re-run the DFSRDiag commands to verify the fix

    Hope this helps with your query,
