16. You have a centralized file server and a remote file server. You want to configure DFS replication between the two servers so that you can perform backups with the centralized file server. You started to perform DFS replication but determine that it will take weeks for the initial replication to occur. How can you speed up the initial replication?

a. Configure the replication to use full speed.

b. Assign two NICs to the site server.

c. Ship a disk with the files, preseed the files, clone the database from the remote file server, and import the database into the centralized file server.

d. Copy the files manually from the site server to the centralized file server.

 

17. Which of the following is an advantage of disabling automatic auto-recovery for DFS databases when the DFSR service stops abnormally?

a. To prevent the constant restarting of the DFS initial replication.

b. To prevent the automatic deleting of files that have not been replicated.

c. To prevent the reseeding of the replicated files.
