OneDrive migration using SPMT help needed
I'm migrating of my file share data (home drives) to OneDrive for business (SharePoint Online) in a enterprise level environment.
Using the Sharepoint migration tool: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepointmigration/introducing-the-sharepoint-migration-tool - I see the options to bulk migrate with a list of available options - although I can't seem to get past the destination window on a pre provisioned drive (more testing needed on my end).
A few questions for the experts:
1. Can a migration be performed without using the SPMT, and instead a robocopy? I'm aware of fasttrack services but wanted to avoid if possible.
2. For the remediation of files and folders (illegal characters) file type restrictions - are there any powershell script resources anyone has used to identify and report out on these that anyone has a resource link to?
Thanks Experts!

A couple of questions, what you have will only log folders with the characters defined in $match if I understand correctly?
This is the criteria, could something be added to capture the files as well, and potentially re mediate them?
Here is the criteria:
Invalid characters:
Folder name, can't start with space or include: \ : / * ? < > " |
File and folder: ~ " # % & * : < > ? / \ { | }.
These names aren't allowed for files or folders: .lock, CON, PRN, AUX, NUL, COM0 - COM9, LPT0 - LPT9, _vti_, desktop.ini, any filename starting with ~$.
There is also this requirement which I could probably gather with a file scan tool unless you know of a easier way.
Maximum path length 260 characters
15GB file size limit
