Move content library to remote fileshare

[r53bertyboo]

Guys,

So I am building out a lab to test multi subnet support for Active/Passive SCCM.  I have everything setup correctly in SQL, so no issues there.  But when I remove the DP role from the 1st SCCM server and click on the Move Content Library, the source location is always blank so therefore I can't move it.

Any ideas why this maybe?  I've done some googling and can't find anything that suggests the same issue has appeared for anybody else.

 

Thanks in advance

I'm having a very similar issue, the source location is blank but it still allows me to initiate the content move. However, it never completes, just gets to 99% and then restarts, I was hoping to solve the blank content location issue first but likewise haven't been able to find anything on google.

I've re-installed using 1802 media and upgraded to 1806 via the in console updates, just trying to move the content now.  I'll let you know how I get on, but for what ever reason even after a fresh install of 1906 I couldn't get this far.

My issue was due to trying to move the content library to a VNX/CIFS share, I later found that " That will never work […]. It needs to be a Windows hosted share backed by an NTFS volume that supports hard-links."

Changed location to a windows share and the move went ahead ok.
