FSMO roles in multiple geographical loctions

i cant seem find a microsoft best practice if there please let me  know. have single forest multi-domain environment with data center in north america , 1 in europe. currently the fsmo roles split both the parent and child domain between both data centers. in process of upgrading full 08r2 environment over next few months. best practice to consolidate all fsmo roles 1 data center or leave them split for disaster recovery purposes? see article best practices assigning fsmo roles: http://windowsdevcenter.com/pub/a/windows/2004/06/15/fsmo.html i add recommended have fsmo roles owners physical dcs performance reasons (a virtual dc loses between 10 , 20 percent of performance compared physical one). this posting provided "as is" no warranties or guarantees , , confers no rights.

Robocopy not copying permissions for non-inherited parent folder

hi we have folder structure want copy robocopy. parent folder in structure set not inherit permissions. has custom security permissions , folders within set inherit, permissions parent.  robocopy creates destination folder sets inherit permissions. causes child folders have wrong permissions.  the work around we've found create parent folder on destination hand , set permissions, given number of permissions, i'd find solution. we're using "robocopy c:\shares\myfolder '\\otherserver\c$\shares\myfolder' /sec /z /e" the structure this; c:\ - shares -- myfolder <- set not inherit permissions. ---- lots of sub folders any ideas why might ? olly i think if create myfolder @ destination, , remove inheritance, perform copy, should fine. should put security on myfolder you. i've used /copyall instead of /sec take attributes , security across. hope helps mcts, mcse 2000/2003, mcsa 2000/2003, cna

are there any practical uses for the variables names like ${c:file.txt} ?

are there practical uses variables names ${c:file.txt} ? these expansions implicit get-content on object named in variable name. the effect of variable namespace notation may functionally identical implicit "get-content" or "out-file". caution against thinking these cmdlets used. more both same thing using components live @ lower level powershell script. but if used under hood, speak, variable namespace notation gives no way access functionality provide other -filepath parameter. means limited reading/writing complete text files. my own personal view feature interesting side effect 1 might find useful in interactive context or in simple scripts. in more significant scripting projects get-content , out-file should preferred because of greater degree of control give, example: they allow name of file contained in variable, whereas variable namespace notation requires name given literal. get-content throws error when referencing non-existent file. va
