7.1 Support for DFS

Section 7.1.1, Dynamic File Services (Windows)
Section 7.1.2, Distributed File Services (OES)

7.1.1 Dynamic File Services (Windows)

Novell Dynamic File Services (DFS) (also known as shadow volumes) on Windows servers is provided as a technical preview. That is, it can be used and demonstrated in a demonstration or pilot capacity, but it is not yet supported for production deployments.

IMPORTANT:The equivalent service on OES, Dynamic Storage Technology (DST), is fully supported by Filr.

7.1.2 Distributed File Services (OES)

Distributed File Services (DFS) for OES, not to be confused with DFS on Windows, involves the NSS Volume Location Database (VLDB) and is not supported by Filr 1.0.1.
