DFS file server issue

Hi,

I have 2 DFS file servers

  • filesvr001
  • filesvr002

And I have established DFS as

  • dfssvr

Thus, I can access \dfssvr for file sharing. But I am facing an issue.

Through below file share path, I can see same number of files (100 files)

  • \filesvr001\share
  • \filesvr002\share
  • \dfssvr\share

Through below local path, number of files are difference

  • D:\share on filesvr001 << Same as 3 file share path (100 files)
  • D:\share on filesvr002 << Only 80 files

I would like to know what's happening on filesvr002.

Why share path can see 100 files but only 80 files locally ? How to solve it ?

Thanks

    Hi，

    Based on my understanding, you created a DFS-N \dfssvr\share for file sharing, the DFS -N has 2 targets:
    \filesvr001\share and \filesvr002\share, right?
    Did you create any DFS-R groups for files replication between the 2 files?
    Did you check the NTFS permission on for the share folder on server 002?
    Would you please tell what's the type of the files you can't see on server 002?

    Best Regards,
