DFS Replication for one group only not working
  

I have 2 DFS Replication groups and each group contains the same 2 member servers.
One group is set to replicate one drive pair between these members, and the other group is set to replicate another drive pair between the same member servers.
Replication works perfectly for one group / folder, but it does not even start on the other group.
This proves that there is no problem with the connectivity between the members, or to the AD.

The DFS Replication Health Report for the group that does not replicate shows no error, just 2 Warnings:
 WARNINGS  (2 servers with warnings)(Show All)
BOG-RODC   (1 warning)
  Reference member returned no replicated folders.  

MTL-HV-FS01   (1 warning)
  This member is waiting for initial replication for replicated folder BOG-RODC_D_Drive.  

This is very weird, I don't see why it does not replicate, I'm pooling my hair out. Please help

Hi,

If you run : dfsrdiag /replstate /mem Server-name /all what do you get as output? Is there any schedule configuration and bandwidth limitation for this replication group. Usually the intial sync takes long if there is large size of data being replicated.

Also issue this command: dfsrdiag backlog /rgname:replgroupname /sendingmember:bog-rodc /receivingmember:mtl-hv-fs01 /rfname:bog_roc_d_drive
