.NAME
DFSReplicationGroupMembership .DESCRIPTION This resource is used to configure Replication Group Folder Membership. It is usually used to set the **ContentPath** for each Replication Group folder on each Member computer. It can also be used to set additional properties of the Membership. This resource shouldn't be used for folders where the Content Path is set in the DFSReplicationGroup. .PARAMETER GroupName Key - String The name of the DFS Replication Group. .PARAMETER FolderName Key - String The name of the DFS Replication Group Folder. .PARAMETER ComputerName Key - String The computer name of the Replication Group member. This can be specified using either the ComputerName or FQDN name for the member. If an FQDN name is used and the DomainName parameter is set, the FQDN domain name must match. .PARAMETER ContentPath Write - String The local content path for the DFS Replication Group Folder. .PARAMETER StagingPath Write - String The local staging path for the DFS Replication Group Folder. .PARAMETER StagingPathQuotaInMB Write - UInt32 The staging path quota size in MB for the DFS Replication Group Folder. .PARAMETER ConflictAndDeletedPath Read - String The local content and deleted path for the DFS Replication Group Folder. .PARAMETER ReadOnly Write - Boolean Specify if this content path should be read only. .PARAMETER PrimaryMember Write - Boolean Used to configure this as the Primary Member. Every folder must have at least one primary member for initial replication to take place. .PARAMETER DomainName Write - String The name of the AD Domain the DFS Replication Group this replication group is in. .EXAMPLE 1 Create a DFS Replication Group called Public containing two members, FileServer1 and FileServer2. The Replication Group contains a single folder called Software. A description will be set on the Software folder and it will be set to exclude the directory Temp from replication. An automatic fullmesh topology is assigned to the replication group connections.

The Replication Group contains a single folder called Software. A description will be set on the Software folder and it will be set to exclude the directory Temp from replication. The resource group topology is left set to 'Manual' so that the replication group connections can be defined.

The name of the Hub computer is passed in the HubComputerName parameter and defaults to 'Hub'. The Hub member contains a folder called WebSiteFiles with the path 'd:\inetpub\wwwroot\WebSiteFiles'.
