Delete DFSR replication group without deleting DFS namespace folder and targets
i have several dfs implementations based on ws08. 1 of dfs folders contains 3 targets corresponding replication group. i deleted 2 of targets selecting option delete replication group member. process worked fine. had 1 desired target had replication group 1 member. wanted state similar when first create dfs group 1 target , no replication group has been created.
when deleted last replication group member deleted dfsr replication group. fine , desired, deleted dfs group , target. not wanted.
how can i safely walk dfs folder multiple targets , replication single target without replication? and, of course, wrap deleting dfsr related folders/files 1 target folder.
thank you, bill
hi bill,

i'm afraid that's design. since meaning of dfs replication to enable efficiently replicate folders across multiple servers , sites. , detail way add multiple dfs target achieve goal. in scenario, if add multiple targets dfs folder, automatically create dfs replication group sync.
