Late next week I will be replacing one of our Domain Controllers with a brand new server. The Domain Controller is also a file share server. I've been looking at options and it looks like robocopy is the right choice for me (we do not use DFS
or else I'd look at using the file migration tool), I'll be going from 2008 R2 to 2012 R2 Domain Controller. Does anyone happen to know the options I'd use in the robocopy command to copy over all the folders, subfolders AND file and folder permissions? Do I need to create the shares manually before I issue the command or will it create them for me? Lastly, ideally I'd like to perform a robocopy over the users lunch hour and then just do a differential copy after everyone goes home to save time. Can I get some assistance with the commands? I've looked on microsofts page, but the options seem pretty extensive. Thanks
