I have a server with seven directories and each directory contains 1000's of files. I need to move first 100 files to server1 then next 100 files to server2,etc. Once it finishes with the first directory then it needs to proceed with the second directory. Each directory contains sets of two files which needs to be copied to same server. See the example below.
Can someone please provide me a powershell script with can archieve this?
Example
Server1
dir1 file1.txt, file1.dat, file2.txt, file2.dat, file3.txt, file3.dat, ......dir2file1a.txt, file1a.dat, file2a.txt, file2a.dat, file3a.txt, file3a.dat, ......
Need a bit more information on this one
Server has 7 folders each with 1000s of files.
For folder 1
You want to move 1st 100 files to server1, 2nd 100 to server 2 etc.
What happens after each server has received 100 files? Do you want to start at server1 again?
What is the criteria of ordering files - name, age, size?
Is there a single destination folder on each of the destination servers or do you want the current folder structure to be preserved?

Yes, it should start at server1. What is the criteria of ordering files - name, age, size? Only criteria is the pairs of files should only be copied. i.e.. abc.txt and abc.dat, xyz.txt and xyz.dat Is there a single destination folder on each of the destination servers or do you want the current folder structure to be preserved? The folder structure are all same on all the servers. It is only the files getting copied to folder \\server1\a\b to server2\a\b Hopefully this answers all the questions. Quick Reply
