Move File Server to new physical server

[Guest Derek Da Silva]

Hi Everyone,

 

My win2k3 file server is nearing the end of its lease. I am required to

move the existing data to the new server. I have 1000's of files including

shares, specific permissions, etc.

 

Could you please advise to move all data from the old server to the new

server and preserve all permissions/shares, etc...

 

Thank you,

D

Hello Derek,

 

Have a look on File server migration toolkit:

I was going to suggest the all powerful control and copy "robocopy" but that

link is much better - must read that myself.
