System Administrator is always challenged with migration of files/folder from old server to new server or simply moving to specific folder while retaining file/folder permission.
However, the challenge happens when SA needs to migrate large volume of files/folders to different location based on specific folder name.
Hence, I create this admin scripts to make full clone of folder in batch mode that supports wildcard/specific folder name. If you try my admin script and it works, please write a feedback.
Pre-Requisites:
S1-1. Download Admin Scripts YLNotes_RoboCopy_BatchFullClone
Download YLNotes_RoboCopy_BatchFullClone (243)
S1-2. Unzip to the root of the drive (e.g. X:\YLNotes\YLNApps\YLNotes_RoboCopy_BatchFullClone)
S1-3. Spreadsheet software to edit Batch Data Template (ODS/XLS/XLSX) and exported into CSV file.
Usage:
S2-1. Edit YLNotes_RoboCopy_BatchFullClone.cmd and Configure [1] RoboCopy Config
S2-2. Navigate to Templates folder, open template file (ODS/XLS/XLST) using spreadsheet software
S2-3. Input Batch Full Clone Data and export to CSV file to
X:\YLNotes\YLNApps\YLNotes_RoboCopy_BatchFullClone
Batch Data Info:

Folder Name : Folder to be cloned
-
Copy Destination: Destination folder to be copied
