RE: [ActiveDir][OT] File copy with security intact
I just looked at the docs I have.. The version I have is 1.95 and it may be newer then what I used then. However it appears that there is a Z option that I was not aware of. This is what I found in the read me " Restarting from the Point of Failure Normally, Robocopy restarts failed copies from the beginning of the file. You can override this default behavior with the /Z switch, which specifies restartable copies. With /Z, failed copies restart from the point of failure rather than the beginning of the file. There is one exception: If the size or time stamp of a file has been modified between retries, Robocopy restarts from the beginning of the file. " In my case I was copying over 14 gb of directories from a NT4 server to a Netapp filer over a 100mb pipe.. It was painful and time consuming to have to start over after the copy failed which delayed the migration project even longer. I am glad that this new version has the new option.

I've tried the robocopy with the cmd file, it doesn't stop copy when 1 of the file is locked / being used, instead it will give you the list of file being locked or can not be copy inside the log file and continue to copy the next file. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Medeiros, Jose Sent: Friday, June 24, 2005 8:11 AM To: ActiveDir@mail.activedir.org Subject: RE: [ActiveDir][OT] File copy with security intact Thanks for the feedback..
