DfsrPrivate folder is a staging folder to act as caches for new and changed files to be replicated from sending members to receiving members.The sending member begins staging a file when it receives a request from the receiving member. The process involves reading the file from the replicated folder and building a compressed representation of the file in the staging folder. This is the staged file. After being constructed, the staged file is sent to the receiving member; if remote differential compression is used, only a fraction of the staging file might be replicated. The receiving member downloads the data and builds the file in its staging folder. After the file has completed downloading on the receiving member, DFS Replication decompresses the file and installs it into the replicated folder.
