Click the staging tab. I wouldn't go lower than 4 GB. I just ran the script. Need to do some research on what is using it. Oh I know!!! I have people save their archive. I guess I have to monitor it if the size do increase. To continue this discussion, please ask a new question. Get answers from your peers along with millions of IT pros who visit Spiceworks. Best Answer. Spencer Mar 13, at UTC. RDC detects changes to the data in a file and enables DFS Replication to replicate only the changed file blocks instead of the entire file.
To use DFS Replication, you must create replication groups and add replicated folders to the groups. Replication groups, replicated folders, and members are illustrated in the following figure. Figure 8 : How DFS replication works. This figure shows that a replication group is a set of servers, known as members , which participates in the replication of one or more replicated folders. A replicated folder is a folder that stays synchronized on each member. In the figure, there are two replicated folders: Projects and Proposals.
As the data changes in each replicated folder, the changes are replicated across connections between the members of the replication group. The connections between all members form the replication topology. DFS Replication uses staging folders to act as caches for new and changed files to be replicated from sending members to receiving members.
The sending member begins staging a file when it receives a request from the receiving member. The process involves reading the file from the replicated folder and building a compressed representation of the file in the staging folder. This is the staged file. After being constructed, the staged file is sent to the receiving member; if remote differential compression [RDC] is used, only a fraction of the staging file might be replicated. The receiving member downloads the data and builds the file in its staging folder.
After the file has completed downloading on the receiving member, DFS Replication decompresses the file and installs it into the replicated folder. DFS Replication uses a "last-writer wins" method for determining which version of a file to keep when a file is modified on two or more members. The losing file is stored in the Conflict and Deleted folder on the member that resolves the conflict. This member might not be the member where the changes originated.
Slow replication can cause replicated folders to remain out-of-sync across members for long time periods. Typically, replication may slow down owing to the following:.
By closely monitoring these factors, administrators can detect bottlenecks to replication early and take pre-emptive measures. This test auto-discovers replicated folders and for each folder reports the bandwith saved during replication and tracks the growth in size of the associated staging folders and config and deleted items folders. This way, administrators can proactively detect probable slowdowns in replication. In addition, they can pinpoint what is causing the slowdown and which replication folders will be affected by this.
Target of the test : A server that hosts the DFS namespace this can even be a server that contains the Dfs root or a replica of it. If the volume hosting the staging folder or debug log files is low on disk space, increase the available disk space on the volume, increase the size of the volume, or change the path of the staging folder to a volume with more available disk space. Home Microsoft. Library :: Library :: 7. Library :: 6. Summary This object monitors whether DFS Replication is successful in cleaning up making additional space in the staging folder for a replicated folder.
Note] We also have a hotfix to help you with calculating staging sizes. Windows Server R2 — The staging area quota must be as large as the 9 largest files in the Replicated Folder.
Windows Server and R2 — The staging area quota must be as large as the 32 largest files in the Replicated Folder. Initial Replication will make much more use of the staging area than day-to-day replication. Setting the staging area higher than the minimum during initial replication is strongly encouraged if you have the drive space available. PowerShell is included on Windows and higher.
You must install PowerShell on Windows Server You can download PowerShell for Windows here. Use a PowerShell script to find the 32 or 9 largest files and determine how many gigabytes they add up to thanks to Ned Pyle for the PowerShell commands. I am actually going to present you with three PowerShell scripts.
Each is useful on its own; however, number 3 is the most useful. This command will return the file names and the size of the files in bytes. This command will return the total number of bytes of the 32 largest files in the folder without listing the file names. This command will get the total number of bytes of 32 largest files in the folder and do the math to convert bytes to gigabytes for you.
This command is two separate lines. You can paste both them into the PowerShell command shell at once or run them back to back. To demonstrate the process and hopefully increase understanding of what we are doing, I am going to manually step through each part. Running command 1 will return results similar to the output below. This example only uses 16 files for brevity.
