Scanstate.exe running extremly slow (USMT 2.6)

D

Darren

When running scanstate on a laptop I am getting very slow performance. I am
at the point where it says transporting data but it is copying a few mb per
minute. Both the laptop and the server are on a 100mb network. I check the
network monitor and it hardly shows a blip on the map. I check the cpu of
the laptop while it is running and scanstate.exe was at 90% and now it isnt
and it still is copying slow. This seems to be happening on some and some
it doesn't. I am using the same hardware in each case. It is just sitting
at 3% and nothing is being copied to the store. I am using MIGSYS.INF with
no changes and a custum inf called test.inf Here is a snap shot of the cmd
file I am kicing of and the test.inf file am using. Basically I just want
to to search for a few types of files on the C: and move it to the D:\ in a
folder call "C_data" which it is doing. I also want the entire d:\ of the
laptop moved to the new D:\ which is doing. I also want all the user
setting of the user who runs this CMD which it is doing. But am I over
killing with these 2 inf files?

Thanks for any help

This is the CMD file I am using to kick it off

Is it possible the network speed and duplex are not set correctly? Can you
check that the network card settings match the switch settings? (If the
router has a specific configuration, e.g. 100/Full, try forcing the computer
and server to both use the same.) A network engineer may be able to monitor
the physical layer traffic and see lots of errors (e.g. "runts").

If you write the store to a local drive, does it run at full speed? If you
then copy the file to the UNC, what is the performance?

Well for one, I was wrong about my minihub, it was 10mb. I connected it to
a 100mb and it is much better. Do you have any suggestions for having it
connect the pst files back?
Thanks for the reply

I believe you will need to use MIGAPP.INF (or some subset of it) to get the
PST files re-attached to the MAPI profile. Just migrating the files (e.g.
the *.PST entry below) isn't enough.

It looks like that did it. Is it possilbe to have it migrate Blackberry
software and Palm device software. That doesnt seem to be listed as an app
it backs up. Can I added it to that file?
Thanks for the help Michael

I believe you will need to use MIGAPP.INF (or some subset of it) to get the
PST files re-attached to the MAPI profile. Just migrating the files (e.g.
the *.PST entry below) isn't enough.

Well for one, I was wrong about my minihub, it was 10mb. I connected it
to a 100mb and it is much better. Do you have any suggestions for having
it connect the pst files back?
Thanks for the reply

When running scanstate on a laptop I am getting very slow performance.
I am at the point where it says transporting data but it is copying a
few mb per minute. Both the laptop and the server are on a 100mb
network. I check the network monitor and it hardly shows a blip on the
map. I check the cpu of the laptop while it is running and
scanstate.exe was at 90% and now it isnt and it still is copying slow.
This seems to be happening on some and some it doesn't. I am using the
same hardware in each case. It is just sitting at 3% and nothing is
being copied to the store. I am using MIGSYS.INF with no changes and a
custum inf called test.inf Here is a snap shot of the cmd file I am
kicing of and the test.inf file am using. Basically I just want to to
search for a few types of files on the C: and move it to the D:\ in a
folder call "C_data" which it is doing. I also want the entire d:\ of
the laptop moved to the new D:\ which is doing. I also want all the
user setting of the user who runs this CMD which it is doing. But am I
over killing with these 2 inf files?

Thanks for any help

This is the CMD file I am using to kick it off
(Note, specfic names have been changed)
