2 Servers in W2K3 SP3 DFS Replication Offline for weeks

-

2 x w2k3 servers dfs replication partners , 1 of servers dfs service had been stopped few weeks .... server has updates users not updating files on server b ... if start dfs service on server a, has many files deleted still exist on server b, dfs replication replicate files server b server a?

thx! feel confident server b receive new files server i'm worried older files no longer exist on server .. don't want them replicate , i'm not 100% of every file & folder changes or deletions.

what expected behavior when dfs service starts on server again?

rr


dfs replication uses "last-writer wins" method determining version of file keep when file modified on 2 or more members. losing file stored in conflict , deleted folder on member resolves conflict. conflict , deleted folder can used store files deleted replicated folders.

so in case, files on server b deleted on server moved conflict , deleted folder. 

to make sure deleted, please try above suggestions set server primary.

thanks.
