Back to work after the hols so here it is.

Which of the following correctly describe a fault tolerant Dfs root (Choose all that apply)?

A) stored in Active Directory services

B) replicated to every participating Dfs root server

C) changes are automatically synchronized

D) you can always restore a Dfs tree topology only as long as the Dfs root is online

E) you can implement fault tolerance at the file but not the content level

 

Correct answer is: ABC

Explanation: A fault tolerant Dfs root is stored in Active Directory services and replicated to every participating Dfs root server. Changes to a Dfs tree are automatically synchronized with Active Directory services. This ensures that you can always restore a Dfs tree topology if the Dfs root is offline for any reason. You can also implement fault tolerance at the file and content level by assigning alternate resources to a Dfs volume. Any branch node on the Dfs tree can be serviced by a set of replicated resources. If a client connection to one alternate resource fails for any reason, the Dfs client attempts to connect to another. The Dfs client cycles through the alternates until an available one is found.
