File Server Cluster and DFS replication

$

hi all,

i am planing file services on a two node file cluster using Windows 2008 R2, i also need to have a full replica of the shared folder on another Windows server (Windows storage server with 20 TB disks) the replica will not be exposed for user access.

i am thinking to use dfs replication to copy the data from the cluster's shared folder to the disks on the storage servers, file permissions will also copy fine,

is any

observation

for this configuration?

my main quenstion is that according to Ms docs dfs replication i cluster aware but on a note in this link

http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc773238(v=ws.10).aspx#BKMK_063 state that DFS Replication does not support replicating files on Cluster Shared Volumes, so this mean that cannot replicate files TO the Cluster Shared Volumes? (i think is normal because only the active node can access the CSV,

but in my case above i just want to copy FROM the  Cluster Shared Volumes (share folder) TO storage server, so will be ok to proceed in this implementation?

thank you for your time!
