Move Content Library to Remote Location - 99% then starts again. RRS feed

  • Hi,

    Similar to this thread:

    When moving the content library I see the logs show progress to 99%:

    Then the process starts all over again, back to 'Copying Content'

    We are on version 1906, so past the 1806 fix, I've tried reboots, different location etc but keep seeing the same thing.

  • That will never work to my knowledge. It needs to be a Windows hosted share backed by an NTFS volume that supports hard-links.

  • Hi,

    Since no one has answer this post, I suggest you try to open a professional support case with Microsoft Customer Support Services (CSS) as they can work with you to solve this issue.

  • What type of remote location are you trying to move your content library to?

  • It's to a VNX CIFS share/network location.
