DFS (Distributed File System) Health

[marinhd]

I am creating Disaster Recovery DC/File Servers in the cloud for my customers and using DFSR to replicate the data there via Point to point VPN tunnels.

Would be great to be able to monitor the health of DFSR and see the back logged files waiting to copy across....

Any chance this can be added to the Enterprise server?

This could be a possible option used with the powershell plugin though this just shows the backlog count and getting the actual health status and backlog count would be better..

Hello,

I looked over your case and you can do a batch script (using this tutorial) then you create a schedueled task that runs manually and calls your script and writes to a file, so you can read - email it to your mobile device / or you can have it print out to the console and call it from the terminal using the mobile client.

hmm. That seems to be from 2006. Wondering if there have been significant changes since then...
