Monitors the health of the SysVol Share

Knowledge Base article:

Additional

The health of the Sysvol shared folder is essential to the Domain Controller. Sysvol is a shared folder on every domain controller that stores a copy of the domain’s public files, including system policies and Group Policy settings, which are replicated to all other domain controllers in the domain. SYSVOL share problems prevent Group Policy and login scripts from working.
