DFS : installation and configuration – Distributed File System
The namespace of DFS makes it possible to provide shared, which are on different servers under the same name.
Instead of accessing a shared folder with the \\server-file\ computer address, we will use an address of the type \\domain-name\ share\ computer. The user will be redirected transparently on the “server-file” server.
In a simplified way, in the folder \\domain-name\share will be shortcuts to other shares that are several servers and this in a completely transparent way for the user.
