Stand-alone DFS Namespace In a stand-alone DFS namespace, the path to access the root or a link starts with the root server name. The stand-alone DFS root can comprise of a single root target. Therefore, these are not fault tolerant. When the root target is not available, you cannot access the complete DFS namespace. You can enable fault tolerance on a stand-alone DFS namespace by creating these namespaces on a cluster of servers. A stand-alone DFS namespace has its configuration information stored in the local registry of eth root server. Domain-based DFS Namespace In a domain-based DFS namespace, the path to access the root or a link starts with the domain name of the host. The domain-based DFS root can comprise of single or multiple root targets that enables fault tolerance and load sharing. A domain-based DFS namespace has its configuration information stored in the Active Directory. Exemple : • \\DomainName\RootName: This is the format of the namespace when you select the Domain-based DFS namespace type. • \\ServerName\RootName: This is the format of the namespace when you select the Stand-alone DFS namespace type.
