Enterprise File Server Migration & NTFS Permission Inheritance

Engineered multi-phase data migrations for shared departmental file drives while preserving complex NTFS security permissions and SID histories.

Key Features & Implementation

  • ACL-Preserved Data Sync: Executed multi-pass Robocopy mirror scripts preserving security descriptors, timestamps, and NTFS ACL inheritance.
  • Distributed File System Namespaces (DFS-N): Configured DFS Namespaces mapping drive letters to logical paths to decouple client mappings from physical server names.
  • Cutover Window Execution: Executed delta file synchronization during off-peak weekend windows to guarantee zero data drift post-cutover.
