Ok, true. But the question is about creating files on the servers that together make up the synced data. Would being joined to a sync group create limitations in what remains also a local folder? Is there a source to back this up?

You cannot have 2 same files within the same folder, what about different folders? not sure about the answers in the comments. Azure file share stores its own files File2.docx and File3.docx in its root folder, whereas we've got subfolders within the onpremises servers. does Azure File Sync creates the folder hierarchy within its share?

- You can create a file named File2.docx in D:\Folder1 on Server1: No (already exists due to synchronization) - You can create a file named File1.docx in D:\Data1 on Server2: Yes (does not exist, so it can be created) - File3.docx will sync to Server1: Yes (will sync from share1 to D:\Folder1 on Server1)

I'm sorry. The correct answer is: You can create a file named File2.docx in D:\Folder1 on Server1: No (already exists due to synchronization) You can create a file named File1.docx in D:\Data1 on Server2: No (already exists due to synchronization) File3.docx will sync to Server1: Yes (will sync from share1 to D:\Folder1 on Server1)

NNY. I don't think you can create something that already exist. You can modify it though. I believe the trick here is "english".

I just went over this training and i belive #2 is Y - your not changing both files- your only changing 1 and it would simply overwrite the older copy. - https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/training/modules/implement-hybrid-file-server-infrastructure/ Y Y (if we were modigying both then N but we are not) Y

1. N - You are not changing a file, it asks if you can create a file with a name that already exists on all endpoints as File2.docx has already been synced from Azure file share (share1) to on-premise endpoints 2. N - As I understand this is the same scenario. File1 from Server1 has already been synced to all endpoints when you try to create a new file with the same name. 3. Y - If you add an Azure file share that has an existing set of files as a cloud endpoint to a sync group, the existing files will sync to server endpoints that you add to the same sync group.

1. Yes -> You can :) 2. No -> "File Sync doesn't provide locking, which means that if the same file is modified on multiple endpoints at the same time before the first modification syncs, a conflict occurs." 3. Yes -> "File Sync implements multi-master replication, which means that changes that occur at any server endpoint sync to all other endpoints in the same sync group." (https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/training/modules/implement-hybrid-file-server-infrastructure/5-describe-azure-file-synchronization) Please correct ,me if I am wrong

Should be: No, No, Yes - I tested it in real life. And I don't know why WMG and Vmwarevirtual has written about "share1 and Share" now I can find only first one in content of the question

Tricky, depends if "share1" and "Share" are supposed to be different or if it is just an error in the text.
