Copying Folder NTFS

Hello

I have to migrate a shared folder (30Go) from old server 2008 R2 to new serveur 2012 R2

Is there a way to copy the folder with all NTFS Rights ?
So that I do not have to care to assign enew NTFS right on the destination folder?

Thank you

First, try this on some sample folders:
ROBOCOPY \\server_2008\share\testfolder \\server_2012\share\testfolder /COPYALL /SECFIX /TIMFIX /DCOPY:T

Open in new window


If you're satisfied, blast the whole thing:
ROBOCOPY \\server_2008\share \\server_2012\share /COPYALL /SECFIX /TIMFIX /DCOPY:T

Open in new window
