We have a large Vista migration underway and are using USMT (User State Migration Tool) to grab profiles in preparation for the push, which has resulted in some problems.
The majority of the captures proceed smoothly however a significant minority fail with some quixotic errors, this is typical:
Info [0x080000] CopyStream: Can't copy streams from {"C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Documents\My Pictures\060812-F-3108S-103.jpg"} to {"45"} object. Error 112. Exception class UnBCL::IOException: unable to write to FileStream.
enum Mig::SendObjectResult __thiscall Mig::CMediaManager::SendObjectInternal(class UnBCL::Stream *,const unsigned short *,const unsigned short *,int)
void __thiscall UnBCL::FileStream::Write(const unsigned char *,int,int)
Info [0x000000] Report problem is called
Info [0x000000] Unable to process object C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Documents\My Pictures\060812-F-3108S-103.jpg -> 45, retries left = 3
Info [0x0802e6] Notification result: Retry.
....a bit later that becomes:
Error [0x0802e9] CopyStream: Can't copy streams from {"C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Documents\My Pictures\060812-F-3108S-103.jpg"} to {"45"} object.
Error 112. Exception class UnBCL::IOException: unable to write to FileStream.
enum Mig::SendObjectResult __thiscall Mig::CMediaManager::SendObjectInternal(class UnBCL::Stream *,const unsigned short *,const unsigned short *,int)
void __thiscall UnBCL::FileStream::Write(const unsigned char *,int,int)
Error [0x0802f1] Failed to store object "C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Documents\My Pictures\060812-F-3108S-103.jpg", stream = "default". User aborted operation.
Error [0x08030a] MigDoMigration caught exception: class Mig::CAbortException: User aborted Send operation..
void __thiscall Mig::CMediaManager::SendCatalogEntry(class Mig::CCatalogEntry *)
...finally culminating in:
Info [0x000000] USMT error Code (status) = 11
Error code 11 corresponds to
USMT_UNABLE_DOMIGRATION (A file is in use) which does not seem to track with any activity occuring on the machine.
I've found the Microsoft documentation extremely unhelpful on diagnosing problems such as this and was wondering what tips other admins might have on troubleshooting USMT issues.
