DESCRIPTION:
RootScalability is an expert-only command to increase performance of large
deployments of DFS namespaces. When set, network traffic among DFS root
servers is kept to a minimum. In addition, there will be less traffic
between the primary DC and DFS servers. The drawback is that users may see
outdated information from DFS servers at times.

PARAMETERS:
 : Path of a root.

NOTES:
1) The path specified must be a root, not a link.
2) This has no effect on stand-alone roots.
3) This feature is only supported on Windows Server 2003 and higher.
4) When RootScalability is enabled, it is not uncommon to see an event
   log message such as,
   "DFS could not access its private data from the DS...". While this
   error may still indicate a problem in AD DS connectivity, typically
   this occurs because the nearest DC has outdated DFS information 
   (expected behavior when RootScalability is enabled).

EXAMPLES:
dfsutil property RootScalability \\contoso.com\DomainNamespace1
