Hey there! Folder level permission means you are only a“Member“ and have only the ability to „contribute. Ask your infra team to give a training on SharePoint. Or ask your siteowner (next level of your current permissions) and then your website collection admin and then your SP admin. SP isn’t only another file share, it must be taught to users. Greets, Eva

Hi Eva,

 

When I said Folder Level Permission or Item level Permission means these kind of permission on File Server not on SharePoint.

 

I already learned about the SharePoint Permission by your shared URL.

    I am having exact permission error here.

    Let me reach out to my infrastructure team to confirm my item level permission on the folders.  Hope this helps me as well.

     

    Thanks.

    Hi Avian, I remember of a story months ago that amazon had trucks of stored files because uploading/migrating is slower than transporting the big data IRL. Sounds funny but even in Germany with 5G transfer rates it’s sometimes annoying. ask your provider if they have an idea for widen up your transfer rate. Greets, Eva

    Hi Eva,

     

    It was  item level permission issue of File Server. When infra team assigned item level permission to all the files we are able to migrate files without any issue.

     

    However I am wondering about tool performance.  When we migrate 11 GB contents (9000 files approx), it took almost 23 hrs to finish the migration. Approx 480 MB per hour.

     

    FYI, I am doing migrate with "Migrate Permission" option, hope this is not slowing performance.

     

    We have 10 MBPS dedicated internet connection on dedicated VM (windows 2012 R2), but still performance is very poor. We are not running any other applications on this server and no other user logged remotely.

     

    I will also try that instead of migrate whole folder (Level 1), I will try to migrate level 2 folder using CSV.  In csv I will add multiple entry for level 2 folders. Hoping this helps.

     

    I also tried PowerShell HSM command let, but almost got same performance.

     

    Any advise to improve the migration speed.

     

    Regards

    Avian
