Migrating data to new disk - Windows server 2012

Question

Hi all,
My environment : Windows server 2012 standard as File server for head site : FileServer-Head
I want to migrate data (including shares and permissions) from D drive (local disk) to G drive (new SCSI LUN) using robocopy.
I have concern : FileServer-Head has DFSR replication with a branch site file server
FileServer-Head\D\somefolders <------> FileServer-Branch\D\somefolders
Here are steps I plan to do on FileServer-Head

Stop the Server service, DFS namespace, DFS replication service to prevent anyone from accessing files on the server during this migration
Run ROBOCOPY D: G: /E /COPYALL /R:3 /W:10 /XD "System Volume Information" (exclude DFS "System Volume Information" from being copied)
When data is copied over, Switch drive letters : D to K , G to D, reboot server
Start the Server service, DFS namespace, DFS replication service and check if it works.

Should I exclude or include "System Volume Information" folder for DFSR keeps working after migration ? Please give me some advice thank you very much.

Answer 1

I think I should include "System Volume Information" because it stores:
The contents of Indexing Service database used for fast file search
Distributed Link Tracking Service database
NTFS disk quota settings
DFS Replication database
And it's size is acceptable (40GB)
