Restoring from backups of DFS shares

When you restore data from backups of DFS shares, the replication process automatically replicates the restored data to the central DFS hub if the restored data has a newer timestamp.

About this task

NOTE File system backups include only DFS shares on local volumes on the client computer.

Perform the appropriate steps to prevent automatic replication after a restore:

  • Restore specific folders or files from a backup of DFS shares by using the steps in Restoring to a different location to restore the data to a location outside of the DFS shared folders.
  • Restore all data from a backup of DFS shares:

    1. Disable DFS replication.

      The “Managing DFS Replication” article on the Microsoft TechNet website provides several methods to disable replication.

    2. Follow the steps in Restoring to the original location to restore the backup.

    3. Manually run replication to synchronize data with the replication server.

      The “Managing DFS Replication” article on the Microsoft TechNet website provides several methods to synchronize data.
