I know this has come up a bit in the past, but consider this situation: Two Samba4 DC's - and I want to "mirror" the data shares to the "backup" DC in case we lose the primary DC and it's file shares.
[A cheap, dirty, poor-mans semi-CTDB. How did you ever guess that Red Green was helping me?!] The easiest way is probably rsync'ing the data. However, will that include all the ACL's and extra data associated with the files. I understand that to a disk on part of the DC, it might not. But on the second DC, all the relevant users, AD group etc do all exist. So, is using rsync in such a situation reasonable/workable, or should we use some windows based utility - say robocopy to handle this?
