Hi

see article here:

https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/storage-at-microsoft/streamlined-migration-of-frs-to-dfsr-sysvol/ba-p/425405

You can only perform a rollback if you haven't reached the "Eliminated" state

Migrate to Eliminated State - DFSR does not mandate that you must migrate through each stage at a time. If you wish, you can trigger migrating all the way to the Eliminated state immediately, where DFSR is replicating SYSVOL and FRS is removed. Unlike the incremental Prepared and Redirected states, there is no way to go backwards from this step - once executed, FRS is permanently stopped and cannot be configured again

Hope this helps,

Thanks
