Hi Team,

I am trying to copy an exported artifacts list folders in to dev server using below command but after executing it says 0 files moved.

xcopy D:\LCM_Extracts\Backups\LCM \\10.92.192.72\D:\Oracle\EPMShare\import_export /s /e /i /f /h /y /j >>lcmtest.log

Could you please help me with this? Thanks!

First of all if you are trying to access a network share usually it would be, \\server\sharename and not trying to connect through the drive letter, using an drive letter or an administrative share you would use dollar, e.g \\server\d$
Also you should consider robocopy as that was the replacement for the old xcopy.

Cheers

John

You need permissions to access so you will need to discuss with whoever controls the permissions.
