Share path

[Guest]

I understand how to copy shares from one server to another.

Is there a way to copy the path the share points to to the new server? I want the path to be the same but I want it to start in the root level folder \OrgData.

Thank you.

Re: Share path

When you copy the shares there is a box at the bottom where you can specify the New Base Path. In that box you will enter in:

OrgData

You'll have to create that directory first, then when you copy shares they will keep the same structure as on the source computer, except under the OrgData directory.

Re: Share path

Perhaps I'm doing something wrong.

This is the path of the share I'm copying:

\\fstis-data1\e$\TISM shares\1MASMD

This is the path that I end up with:

\\fsmas-data\d$\OrgData\1MASMD

This is the path I want to end up with:

\\fsmas-data\d$\OrgData\TISM shares\1MASMD

I've already created the directory OrgData.

Re: Share path

Try this for the base path:

OrgData\TISM shares

Make sure both the OrgData and TISM shares directories exist.

Re: Share path

I was hoping to avoid having to type out every share path since I have about 80 to create!
