SharePoint Migration Tool error bij larger files, what is the max limit per migration?

Hi there,

 

As more of you i was very exicted when i saw the SharePoint Migration Tool.

I hopped right in and started testing the v.02.60.0 version.

 

I noticed when i migrated a couple of files worth a couple of MB it runs smoothly and very fast. When i put the tool to the test and try to migrate more like 10GB (Or even more like 40GB) the tool runs for 20/30 minutes and than gives an error that doesnt explain much and the migration stops. Also in the reports i cant find any details.

 

Anyone encountered this and found a solution? or someone found out what the max nummer of GB per migration is?

  • Hi, Can you share a bit more about the error message.

     

    Also look in the log under this folder and let me know if you find anything usefull as to why it didnt work.

    C:\Users\%user name%\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\MigrationTool\XXXX\WF_XXXXX folder

        Greetings,I have the same error message, I use version 0.2.65,run the update to version 0.2.68.1 and I present the same error message, there are 1820 files 3.61 Gb

  • Well, remember the tool is still in preview so some adjustments might be required to be done by the Team...it could help if you share here the logs generated by the tool when the migration crashes
