Your network contains an Active Directory domain.
All domain controllersrun Windows Server 2003.
You replace all domain controllerswith domain controllers that run Windows Server 2008 R2.
You raise the functional levelof the domainto Windows Server 2008 R2.
You need to minimize the amount of SYSVOL replication traffic on the network.
What should you do?
A.
Raise the functional level of the forest to Windows Server 2008 R2.
B.
Modify the path of the SYSVOL folder on all of the domain controllers.
C.
On a global catalog server, run repadmin.exe and specify the KCC parameter.
D.
On the domain controller that holds the primary domain controller (PDC) emulator FSMO role, run dfsrmig.
exe.
Explanation:
Now that the domain controllers have been upgraded to Windows Server 2008 R2 and the domain functional
level has been upgraded to Windows Server 2008 R2 we can use DFS Replication for replicating SYSVOL,
instead of File Replication Service (FRS) of previous Windows Server versions.
The migration takes place on a domain controller holding the PDC Emulator role.

Using DFS Replication for replicating SYSVOL in Windows Server 2008
DFS Replication technology significantly improves replication of SYSVOL. In Windows 2000 Server, Windows
Server 2003, and Windows Server 2003 R2, FRS is used to replicate the contents of the SYSVOL share. When
a change to a file occurs, FRS replicates the entire updated file. With DFS Replication, for files larger than 64
KB, only the updated portion of the file is replicated.

Migrating to the Prepared State
The following sections provide an overview of the procedures that you perform when you migrate SYSVOL
replication from File Replication Service (FRS) to Distributed File System (DFS Replication).
This migration phase includes the tasks in the following list.
