SOLVED Content Library Transfer Tool Failed

Hello!

I wanted some feedback to make sure I'm doing this restore properly before I take the DP out of maintenance mode.

Short story is, our network share that was used to store the content library was getting full and we needed to attach a new network share to migrate the data to. (The original drive used MBR and we couldn't expand the drive size past 2 TB).

I used the contentlibrarytransfer utility and set the source drive and the target drive respectively. Unfortunately, the transfer utility hit a snag because a file path was too long and stopped copying the content. It ended up copying only a small percentage of SCCMContentLib but still proceeded....

The tool decided to proceed with setting the share permissions and deleting the old content. Well... that's where I'm at right now. The DP is still in maintenance mode because I know the SCCMContentLib wasn't completed and the original content library is now deleted.

If I do a restore of the following folders and replace the content on the new drive with the restore, would this be sufficient, or am I just at the point where I should just delete the DP role and re-add it and redistribute all content to it?

  • SMSSIG$
  • SMSPKGE$ (Restore the content to SMSPKGW$ since that's the new share)
  • SMSPKGSIG
  • SMSPKG
  • SCCMContentLib
The shares are already configured on the new drive from the tool and has SCCM pointing to the new drive letter (W:). Any pointers would be greatly appreciated. We're currently doing a restore of the folders listed above - though the restore process is probably going to take several hours to complete.

Thanks!
 
Ended up spinning up a new distribution point, redistribute the content, and remove the DP role from the primary server.
