    filescrn filegroup import /file:d:\filegroups.xml

    • You must be logged on with a domain account that is a member of the Administrators group on both the local computer and the remote computer.

    • The remote computer must be running Windows Server 2008, and File Server Resource Manager must be installed.

    • The Remote File Server Resource Manager Management exception on the remote computer must be enabled. You enable this exception by using Windows Firewall in Control Panel.

    Note

    When you import file groups on a remote computer by using the /remote: parameter, the XML file specified by the /file: parameter must be located on the local computer.
