Recently I was tasked with syncing some shared drives so we could upgrade a server. I started down the path of finding the best tool for the job, Googling Robocopy, XCopy, RichCopy, etc. My requirements were that the tool had to copy security permissions for the shared folders, had to be able to copy across the network, and needed to be able to sync just deltas so we didn't have to copy hundreds of GB's every time something changed. I came across a few recomendations for EMCopy 123.
Other people have done more in depth comparisons of the various tools. This is just my recommendation and an example of how it's being used in my environment.
Emcopy Download Hi, i need to get access to powerlink to download a emcopy i believe how can i do this? I do not need any other tools or products, and was told by a sales rep to ask support for access to. To process exit codes returned by xcopy, use the ErrorLevel parameter on the if command line in a batch program. For an example of a batch program that processes exit codes using if, see Additional.

Flags and options
I placed EMCopy on the server I wanted to move files to, and used the following..
I'll break that down in logical blocks, not necessarily how it's listed above:
Emcopy Examples
remoteserver.domain.comF$ F:
- Source path followed by destination path. In this case I'm coping entire drives (F: drive) from a remote server to the local server
/s /purge /sdd
- Directory options. /s copies sub directories. /purge removes files and directories from the destination that do no exist in the source. /sdd forces the target directories dates to be synchronized with the source directory.
/de
- Compares both file size and last modification time when deciding to update a file, updates it if either have been changed.
Emcopy Logs
/cm md5
- checks the file content after copying using and md5 comparison of the source and destination.
Emcopy Syntax
/o /secforce /sd
- /o copies the files owner, without this the account used for the copy will be the owner. /secforce overwrites the destination security settings with the source security settings (copies security settings). Ppsspp wwe 2k. /sd preserves security, the file isn't copied if an error occurs during security settings.
/th 16
- Uses 16 threads, default is 64.
/r:1 /w:30 /c
- /r:1 retires one time (default I believe is 100), I don't care to have it retrying all day because someone left a word document opened. Hoover dual power max carpet washer instruction manual. If it fails it fails and I'll catch it tomorrow. /w:30 is the wait time in seconds between retries. /c will allow the process to continue after the retries.
