Powershell Script to start a lot of Robocopy Jobs
We were recently helping a customer with a domain consolidation where we had to copy a bunch of files from several different domains over to a new file server. We decided to break the task up into a few steps, the first of which was to simply get the data onto the destination! To do that, we decided to use Robocopy, but we were going to need to copy data from several different domains without trust relationships, meaning that we'd have to get a bit creative with gaining access to the source data. In the end, I put together a script! This guy takes several important input parameters: foldersList, drivesList, and logFolder.

This script ultimately depends on two columns in that CSV: SourceDrive and DestinationDrive, although we put SourceUNC and DesintationUNC fields in that file to help with later steps. At its core, the FoldersList CSV is used to make the robocopy c...
