Practice question 488 of 506 · hard

A company uses DFS Namespaces and DFS Replication for branch data. It plans to replace DFSR data replication with Azure File Sync while retaining the user-facing namespace. Which two cutover principles are appropriate? Select two answers.

Select all that apply. Every correct option and no extras are required for credit in the app.

  1. A.Complete the initial upload from the first member with tiering disabled, then follow the documented DFSR disablement and additional File Sync endpoint sequence
  2. B.Keep both replication engines actively replicating the same directory indefinitely to double the reliability
  3. C.Enable cloud tiering before the initial copy and assume all existing DFSR partners understand tiered placeholders
  4. D.Replace the retained namespace with direct cloud UNC paths even though preserving the existing user-facing path is required
  5. E.Retain or update DFS namespace referrals to the intended SMB targets while treating namespace routing separately from data synchronization
Show the answer and explanation

✓ Correct answers

  • Complete the initial upload from the first member with tiering disabled, then follow the documented DFSR disablement and additional File Sync endpoint sequence
  • Retain or update DFS namespace referrals to the intended SMB targets while treating namespace routing separately from data synchronization

DFS Namespaces can retain the user path through suitable SMB targets. The documented migration begins with the complete initial upload without tiering, then coordinates DFSR disablement before adding the remaining endpoints. Controlled initial staging must not become indefinite competing replication. Replacing the namespace fails the preserved-path requirement, and enabling tiering prematurely does not establish placeholder compatibility.
