file replication
About this tag
File replication in Windows environments often relies on tools like DFSR (Distributed File System Replication) and Robocopy. Discussions cover DFSR not replicating SYSVOL folders across domain controllers, with issues such as initial sync states persisting despite authoritative or non-authoritative sync attempts. Another topic involves a Robocopy command (robocopy /sec /mir) incorrectly updating DACLs during file replication on Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2, which can lead to permission problems. These threads highlight common troubleshooting scenarios for file replication in Windows Server, including replication failures and command-line tool behavior.
Hi All,
I have this issue with a farm of 5 Domain Controllers (Windows server 2012 and 2016). DFSR is not replicating SYSVOL folder to any of the of the domain controllers. Here is a quick topology of the servers.

DC02 - Child Domain Controller
DC03 - Child...

Fixes an issue in which the "robocopy /sec /mir" command updates the DACLs on files incorrectly during the file replication process. This issue occurs on a computer that is running Windows 7 or Windows Server 2008 R2.
