(default; includes all record types except CNAME),

MSEXCHANGE

/failback

—Denotes a failback procedure, performed after a failed source is

recovered or restored (required for modify on failback)

fbswitch

(optional)—By default, the DFO will only failback records in the

dfo_failback_config.dat

file.

fbswitch

allows you to enter a search

criteria to identify the records to change back, even if they are not in the

configuration file.

fbswitch

is also used if the

dfo_failback_config.dat

file is missing

/lock

—Allows Active Directory locking for the A type record of the source

specified without modifying the record

/unlock

—Allows Active Directory unlocking for the A type record of the source

specified without modifying the record

trusteename

—The domain account for the source server machine

(

domain\machine$

). DFO will add a deny "Write All Properties" permission

to the DNS A record on failover and remove the permission on failback for the

account identified as a trustee. This prevents the source sever from reclaiming

its DNS A record if it comes back online prior to failback.

sourceDN

—The distinguished name of the source machine's computer account

(

CN=<machine>,DC=domain,DC=local

). DFO will add a deny "Read All

Properties" permission to the computer account on failover and remove the

permission on failback for the trustees specified with the

/trustee

parameter.

This prevents a source virtual server from being brought online in Windows

2008 prior to failback.

/verbose

—Logging and display level set to maximum detail (optional)

/FLUSHDNS /machine [machine_FQDN])—

Run the

ipconfig

/flushdns

actually made, just listed (optional)
