Hi guys. I'm migrating a FS. Windows server 2016 to 2019 I have quotas and I need to migrate them, I already copied the files and the shares are already created.. I'm looking at the dirquota option. but I can't find any info to export the quotas. only the templates. Is there a way or do I have to manually create them again? Thanks!

    Hi Mario,

    Thanks for your post. Basically, file server migration has complicated steps. More detail, when you migrate File Server Resource Manager, remember to use the same drive letters for the destination server volumes as for the source server. This is required because the File Server Resource Manager migration requires that the drive letter remains the same.

    Reference: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/previous-versions/windows/it-pro/windows-server-2012-r2-and-2012/jj863570(v=ws.11)#file-server-resource-manager-configuration-on-the-source-server

    Best Regards,

    Ian Xue
