Attempting to modify the registry of a standalone DFS root is not recommended. Option 1 -Restore the Standalone DFS configuration data from backup Restore the system-state from a backup made prior to the loss.
The system-state includes the registry data for the server to host the shares. Ensure the folder s for the share s also are present on the server. Option 2 - Recover the share configuration data from the registry If a system-state backup of a DFS Namespace server is not available but share registry information exists, this information may be used to restore the share configuration of the server.
This registry key may be imported to the DFS Namespace server or used as a reference of the share names and location of shared folders for manual creation.
To restore or import the registry key using the registry editor, click Import on the File menu. Once the shares have been recovered, restart the Namespace server's DFS service to initialize the namespace. Need more help? Expand your skills. Get new features first.

No jargon. Pictures helped. Looks like I need to update to R2 in order to start replication and update the names. Replication and namespace are separate functions. How much data do you have?
Robocopy is probably your better solution, especially since you can not add DFS Replication to the existing server without either re-installing the OS, or possibly hacking the installation product key, adding the R2 components, and then reapplying SP2 and all the DFS-R related hotfixes.
That's a lot of riskly work for a server are are trying to get away from. I am assume the Windows server is physical? If it was virtual you could just attach the drives to the new server. That's actually an idea You are planning on the new server being virtual, right?
For editing that many DFS namespace targets, I would export the settings, manipulate with a text editor, and them import them back in. I have done this when changing file servers, and is a good way to easily see what all of your target are. It's easy to leave DFS targets lying around to servers that no longer exist. An export will let you see them. Now what is the representative of the cache syntax in Windows Server R2? Office Office Exchange Server. Not an IT pro?
