.NAME
DFSReplicationGroupConnection .DESCRIPTION This resource is used to create, edit and remove DFS Replication Group connections. This resource should ONLY be used if the Topology parameter in the Resource Group is set to Manual. .PARAMETER GroupName Key - String The name of the DFS Replication Group. .PARAMETER SourceComputerName Key - String The name of the Replication Group source computer for the connection. This can be specified using either the ComputerName or FQDN name for the member. If an FQDN name is used and the DomainName parameter is set, the FQDN domain name must match. .PARAMETER DestinationComputerName Key - String The name of the Replication Group destination computer for the connection. This can be specified using either the ComputerName or FQDN name for the member. If an FQDN name is used and the DomainName parameter is set, the FQDN domain name must match. .PARAMETER Ensure Write - String Allowed values: Present, Absent Specifies whether the DFS Replication Group connection should exist. .PARAMETER Description Write - String A description for the DFS Replication Group connection. .PARAMETER EnsureEnabled Write - String Allowed values: Enabled, Disabled Ensures that connection is either Enabled or Disabled. .PARAMETER EnsureRDCEnabled Write - String Allowed values: Enabled, Disabled Ensures remote differential compression is Enabled or Disabled. .PARAMETER EnsureCrossFileRDCEnabled Write - String Allowed values: Enabled, Disabled Ensures cross-file similarity remote differential compression is Enabled or Disabled. .PARAMETER MinimumRDCFileSizeInKB Write - UInt32 The file size threshold for RDC to apply in KB. .PARAMETER DomainName Write - String The name of the AD Domain the DFS Replication Group connection should be in. .EXAMPLE 1 Create a DFS Replication Group called Public containing two members, FileServer1 and FileServer2. The Replication Group contains a single folder called Software. A description will be set on the Software folder and it will be set to exclude the directory Temp from replication. The resource group topology is left set to 'Manual' so that the replication group connections can be defined.

The name of the Hub computer is passed in the HubComputerName parameter and defaults to 'Hub'. The Hub member contains a folder called WebSiteFiles with the path 'd:\inetpub\wwwroot\WebSiteFiles'. This path is replicated to all members of the SpokeComputerName parameter array into the 'd:\inetpub\wwwroot\WebSiteFiles' folder.
