Hello there. I'm consistently running into trouble using robocopy to copy a large directory structure, with some 50000 files, from a samba share to a local windows clients. I'm using packaged 4.6.2 samba, on Centos 7, running on as KVM VMS. Both machines I am running exhibit the following behaviour: - I want to copy a large folder structure with 50000 files. robocopy /E \\sambaserver\folder d:\localfolder After about 20 minutes, copying stalls in various places, with the client unable to read file properties, with messages such as "unable to access file properties of \\sambaserver\folder\a\b\foo.txt" retrying The session then is stuck. the server is idle. Browsing to the folder shows the file to be in place. Restarting the session will cause a similar error to occur, but on some other file, after a similar amount of time. Copying the same data from a real windows machine does not have this problem, and takes about 40min in total. This is my samba configuration. Is anyone else experiencing anything similar?
