Re: Best way to migrate 2TB file server

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

Hello CK,

Thank you for using newsgroup!

From your post, we may use File Server Migration Toolkit 1.0 to migrate
File server. However, I agree with Mathieu's suggestion. You may use
Robocopy or backup/restore to migrate data that is large size data.

Thanks & Regards,

Ken Zhao

| Hello,
|
| You may keep the SID through SID History but this is meaned as a
temporary
| workaround. You would re-cacls all files and folders later.
|
| You may use robocopy or backup/restore to migrate data.
|
| Are the current security rights based on AD groups memberships (and only
| groups) ?
|
| I personaly always use 2 groups : G-XXX-READ and G-XXXX-WRITE.
