robocopy

[clonea1]

am I being stupid or can robocopy not enumerate a drivepool from root ? but a std copy command does work from root

if I robocopy a specific folder it appears to work but well that would be a pain in the but to backup.  as backing up each member drive will produce a extreme amount of data over lap

 

I would copy and paste issue's but no copy paste on this forum

To complete the thread for my part I can report that BETA 612 now has the dashboard working correctly.  NOTE: Reboot client computers too before using dashboard after updating Drivepool.

Hello,

 

Having exactly the same issue as described here. I take it this still isn't fixed in the current stable release of drivepool, and I need to use the beta to robocopy from the pool root?

 

Thanks

No, it's not fixed in the stable release (2.1.1.561), you'd need to use the Public beta build.  

 

We do hope to push out new public release versions soon. But we don't have an ETA.

Thank you for the reply.

 

Not a problem. For now, I am using the following Powershell script to move everything. It wont copy files at the top level, only folders however.

get-childitem p: | 
foreach-object{
	robocopy p:\$_ \\tv-server\p$\$_ /e /W:5 /R:10 /MT:32 > p:\backup.log
}

well, that would work  

 

(since it's an issue with the top level/root folder)
