We are using following command (here we are filtering something) load "\\SystemName\Logfiles" "\\SystemName\Loglocation\dcs00onxohs7n66zpqh7ksvx0_3m8h" filter "*_3m8h-dcs-*.*;-W3SVC1\" sync update:lt->rt I want to perform same task( copy and filering) using robocopy. Can anyone guide mme on this? I am using BeyondComapre to copy the files from one system to other. We are using following command (here we are filtering something)

Problem is, ROBOCOPY seems to ignore the /MINLAD:730 switch, I even tried using /MINLAD:20071028 siwtch to no avail. All the files are moved: ROBOCOPY /E /COPY:DATSOU /MOVE /MINLAD:730 WHat am I doing wrong? I am using the following command line to move files that have not been accessed in more than two years.

Beside, Robocopy also can preserve all of the file properties and information, including date and time stamps, security access control lists (ACLs) and more while replicating the file. Robocopy is definitely a more useful utility, especially for advanced users. However, Robocopy came built-in in Windows Vista with command line interface only. To ease the task of using Robocopy, a GUI (graphical user interface) has been made available by Microsoft. Robocopy GUI lets you specify your source and target paths, as well as any custom options or filters you’d like to apply, whether or not you’d like to create a drive mapping, where you’d like to store the resulting logs, and so on. These are all features you can certainly execute with traditional Robocopy command line functionality, but for many, having the options consolidated in a graphical interface may really simplify the process.
