I am trying to copy a folder that sits in one FS onto another FS. Reading the posts here server_archive looks ok for this but I was wondering can it do /MIR like robocopy can? (mirror switch) i want to do a copy then sync it up before i redirect the users.. I would use robocopy but weirdly I am getting the following error :
ERROR: You do not have the Manage Auditing user right.
***** You need this to copy auditing information (/COPY:U or /COPYALL).
The account I am using is a local administrator on the celerra (which has this user right by default) CIFS server so I have no idea why robocopy is throwing this error...
from what i've tested so far ..server_archive is always a full copy. robocopy /MIR ..should only do /E and /PURGE ..i am not sure why it's trying to copy auditing information. You can also add /FFT just in case.
please recheck the user rights, you need the "Manage Auditing and Security Log" right. If you are copying between different compnames, you need it on the source and the target.
so i tried the robocopy job again but instead of the \copyall flag (which also copyied auditing ) i used the copy:datso and this worked.. maybe the celerra doesnt like copying auditing information? Because the account definately had admin rights hence it had the manage auditing and sec log right it was between the same CIFS server too...
oh well i will use this then set the audit information afterwards.. i will have to save server_archive for another time
