Migrate Data with Robocopy
robocopy C:\
\\\ /MIR /COPYALL /Z /LOG:C:\Robocopy.txt /R:0 /W:0 /NP /XD RECYCLER "System Volume Information" ~snapshot
Some explanations:
- /Z - Restartable Mode - If Robocopy is stopped, then restarted, partially copied files are picked up and incrementally copied.
- /B - Backup Mode - In some cases it is advised to also add the /B (Backup Mode) option to copy files in backup mode. This option leverages the Windows NT "backup mode" feature, allowing files to be copied using the Backup Operator rights.
Only one limitation: Tools like robocopy, xcopy, xxcopy, ... has problems of copying files without read access. Secure Copy or emccopy (only for EMC) can do it!

ReplyDeletePoster1 - this is incorrect. You can use backup mode (if you have such permissions) to copy files you don't have permissions on.

Poster number1, this is incorrect; if you have backup permissions, you can use "/B" for backup mode.
