Shared folder migration - Without using registry

[JoeF1]

Hi guys.

Slowly migrating shares from 2003 to 2012 file servers.

I'm looking for a way to automate this. I know robocopy will copy file permissions although it doesn't allow for shares. The internet is telling me to do the robocopy and then merge the registry which i don't really want to do. Is there a way of doing this without the registry export?

I have tried MFST but that doesn't allow for nested shares. (I want to do one share at a time).

Thanks.

Hi there,

Thanks for getting back to me. Well they are both virtual machines but one is on a VM cluster and the other is on a hyper v.

Sorry if i have confused, i don't mind using MSFST or Robocopy although i can't find a way for them to port the shares.

Thanks.
