Hello, We implemented DFSR on 2 server for redundancy purposes, however we are getting these warning messages: The DFS Replication service has been repeatedly prevented from replicating a file due to consistent sharing violations encountered on the file. The service failed to stage a file for replication due to a sharing violation. Additional Information: File Path: D:\Sharedfoler\Data\shipping\app Replicated Folder Root: D:\sharedfolder\Data File ID: {D3F23523532E0546}-v72523525 Replicated Folder Name: Data Replicated Folder ID: A8F1392352391-4513235233D Replication Group Name: domain.local\dfssharedfolder\data Replication Group ID: 91D346346729B2 Member ID: 56346343682-4194-A319-A3867043263463443467 How do we fix this?

Hi, The topic of this forum is Exchange Server 2010 and your question doesn't have anything to do with that. I suggest that you post in tthe forum for Windows Server Forum - File Services and Storage if you want help with DFS. Good Luck!Martina Miskovic

This MS article KB 822300(http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;822300) addresses directly the solutions to your issue. Also, you might want to check out this KB 319553 (http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=319553#E5ACAAA) as well for further network troubleshooting. If still the issue is not fixed, i suggest posting the query in Windows Forum as this forum is purely for a discussion on Exchange 2010. Thanks ***Don't forget to mark helpful or answer*** **Note:(My posts are provided AS IS without warranty of any kind)

Arrgghhh I thought I changed this to Server - how do I change this?

Hi, Sometimes this kind of warnings are common. Generally they are caused if a copy of a file is still opening while it is ready for replication. Please just check if files are replicated correctly. If so, you could safely ignore these warnings as repliation is working fine after these sharing violations happens.
