ROBOCOPY not copying NTFS permissions

$

0

Hi,

I need to move my file server from windows 2008 to Netapp NAS. I am using the robocopy tool from Microsoft.

robocopy source destination /b /E /copyall

param B: to use the backup feature to copy the file

param E: to include all subfolders

param copyall: to copy all file attributes and ntfs permissions

I am using an Enterprise user account, in addition I have added this account to the local "Backup Operators".

I am running the cmd in administrator mode ( run as administrator)

I
am facing a problem with the folders that I don't have permissions to
access them , I know that I can take ownership and access them but this
is not my situation, I just need to copy them and keep the same
permissions.

since I am running the cmd as administrator, I am
able to copy even the folders that I don't have access too but on the
destination folder the NTFS permission is set to "inherit from parent"
and not the same NTFS permissions as the source.

It is not a limitation from Netapp, I used the same command to copy the files to another directory and the same issue occurred.

any ideas?

thanks
