Sometimes when you use Distributed File System (DFS) replication service on your Microsoft Windows 2003 Server based computer, you might come across several consequences. These situations might cause data loss in many situations. In these cases, all of your mission critical and valuable files and stored data become inaccessible and you come across critical situations. In these grave circumstances, you need to opt for Windows recovery solutions to get all of your lost files back.

Consider the underwritten situations where you might face the problems and possibly the file loss situations:

You use the Dfsrmig.exe (a DFS replication service migration utility) for migrating the SYSVOL share from the File Replication Service (FRS) to Distributed File System Replication (DFSR) serving in the Microsoft Windows Server 2003 based computer.

Some Read Only Domain Controllers (RODCs) exist in the domain.

In these situations, the Microsoft Windows NT File Replication Service (NTFRS) subscriptions containers are not deleted on domain controllers in this domain after the migration procedure completes. This problem might case the serious file loss situations, if the below given conditions are true:

The Active Directory has delete from any of the Windows domain controllers of this domain.

The Active Directory is installed on same domain controller in another domain.

If the administrator come across the redundancy that is triggered by above scenarios and deletes the additional junction, all scripts of the Group Policy and the objects in new domain are deleted on all of the domain controllers after the Active Directory Replication Service completes.

In new domain, when you use the Dfsrmig.exe tool to migrate the SYSVOL share from the FRS to DFSR replication service. After migration, two junctions might point the same target- %SYSTEMROOT%Sysvol_dfsrdomain

When you come across such issue, you experience disastrous file loss scenarios and it become essential to go for File Recovery solutions to get your valuable and mission critical files back.
