Has anyone tried this and had success with it?
We have replication between (2) 2008 R2 servers. We were having issues with multiple people making changes to the same file, and changes getting lost. I changed the referral ordering to specify the original "primary" server as "First among all targets", and the other server to "last among all targets". It's been several days now since doing that. But this morning I look at Open Files on the secondary server, and there are open files.... not a lot, but there are some open.
Is this feature not reliable? Would I have better luck with just removing the check-mark for "enable referals for this folder target"?
