At times it may be desirable to replicate a directory structure from one computer to another, but not include files that may reside within that structure.
By using a combination of folder and file selection filters, it is possible to create a copy job that includes all the folders/directories of a specified source path, but does not include any files within that path.
To copy folders without files
1 Click Jobs, and expand the job.
2 Click Copy Locations.
3 Specify the source and destination paths. See Setting copy locations.
NOTE: When the source path is a drive root, such as \\server1\c$\, you may want to clear the Create initial Source Folder Under Target Folder check box on the Copy Locations page. |
4 Open the Filters page.
5 Select Include/Exclude folders.
6 Leave the Folder Names list empty.
7 Select Apply filter to the files.
8 Click Add, type an extension that does not exist within the selected source structure, such as xyz, and then click OK.
9 Save and then run the job. See Running a job.
The options on the Performance page affect the performance of the selected copy job. The selected options override the global options set with Tools | New Job Options. See Setting default performance settings.

You can choose to compare an SHA512 checksum of the file being copied to the source and target.
NOTE: Verifying the file copy is a time, I/O, and processor intensive activity because it compares the checksums of the source and target files. Selecting this option could considerably extend the time required to complete the data migration. NOTE: Use the File Verification Report to show errors in the SHA512 checksum comparisons. See Running reports. |
To verify the copy job
1 Click Jobs, and expand the job.
2 Click Performance.
3 Select Perform SHA512 checksum verification on copied files.
4 To include skipped files, select Include skipped files.
You can set logging for an individual copy job. Two logging levels are available: Full and Errors only. Selecting Full automatically enables the Logging Status option where you can customize your logs by copying status.
To enable logging
1 Click Jobs, and expand the job.
2 Click Performance.
3 Select Enable logging.
4 Select the logging level, and logging status (when available).
