NOTE
WINDOWS POWERSHELL AND TEST-PATH
When using the above command, or any other command that points to a shared folder,
the folder needs to already exist. Windows PowerShell will not create it if it isn't there. Use
the Test-Path cmdlet to test if a path exists without generating an error. If the path exists,
Test-Path returns $True. If it doesn't, it returns $False.
For a full list of DFS-N cmdlets, use the following command:
Get-Command -Module DFSN
EXAM TIP
If you look at the number of parameters available for the DFS-N and DFS-r cmdlets, you
can see several ways to tweak each command, which makes them a tempting target for the
exam question writer. You shouldn't attempt to memorize every possible parameter, but
you should try to understand what options are available and what they mean so that you'll
be able to recognize when an incorrect answer choice is leading you astray.
adding a DFS-N folder
You can add a folder to an existing DFS-N root by using the DFS Management console or by
using Windows PowerShell. To add a folder to an existing DFS-N root, follow these steps:
Expand the Namespaces section of the DFS Management console and select the root
for the new folder.
