Description

The Start-AzureStorageFileCopy cmdlet starts to copy a source file to a destination file.

Examples

PS C:\>Start-AzureStorageFileCopy -SrcShareName "ContosoShare01" -SrcFilePath "FilePath01" -DestShareName "ContosoShare02" -DestFilePath "FilePath02"

This command starts a copy operation from file to file. The command specifies share name and file name

Example 2: Start copy operation from blob to file by using container name and blob name

PS C:\>Start-AzureStorageFileCopy -SrcContainerName "ContosoContainer01" -SrcBlobName "ContosoBlob01" -DestShareName "ContosoShare" -DestFilePath "FilePath02"

This command starts a copy operation from blob to file. The command specifies container name and blob name

Parameters

-AbsoluteUri

Specifies the URI of the source file. If the source location requires a credential, you must provide one.

Type:	String
Position:	Named
Default value:	None
Required:	True
Accept pipeline input:	False
Accept wildcard characters:	False

-ClientTimeoutPerRequest

Specifies the client-side time-out interval, in seconds, for one service request. If the previous call fails in the specified interval, this cmdlet retries the request. If this cmdlet does not receive a successful response before the interval elapses, this cmdlet returns an error.

Type:	Nullable<T>[Int32]
Position:	Named
Default value:	None
Required:	False
Accept pipeline input:	False
Accept wildcard characters:	False

-ConcurrentTaskCount

Specifies the maximum concurrent network calls. You can use this parameter to limit the concurrency to throttle local CPU and bandwidth usage by specifying the maximum number of concurrent network calls. The specified value is an absolute count and is not multiplied by the core count. This parameter can help reduce network connection problems in low bandwidth environments, such as 100 kilobits per second. The default value is 10.

Type:	Nullable<T>[Int32]
Position:	Named
Default value:	None
Required:	False
Accept pipeline input:	False
Accept wildcard characters:	False

-Confirm

Prompts you for confirmation before running the cmdlet.

Type:	SwitchParameter
Aliases:	cf
Position:	Named
Default value:	False
Required:	False
Accept pipeline input:	False
Accept wildcard characters:	False

-Context

Specifies an Azure Storage context. To obtain a context, use the New-AzureStorageContext cmdlet.

Type:	IStorageContext
Aliases:	SrcContext
Position:	Named
Default value:	None
Required:	False
Accept pipeline input:	True
Accept wildcard characters:	False

-DefaultProfile

The credentials, account, tenant, and subscription used for communication with Azure.

Type:	IAzureContextContainer
Aliases:	AzureRmContext, AzureCredential
Position:	Named
Default value:	None
Required:	False
Accept pipeline input:	False
Accept wildcard characters:	False

-DestContext

Specifies the Azure Storage context of the destination. To obtain a context, use New-AzureStorageContext.

Type:	IStorageContext
Position:	Named
Default value:	None
Required:	False
Accept pipeline input:	False
Accept wildcard characters:	False

-DestFile

Specifies a CloudFile object. You can create a cloud file or obtain one by using the Get-AzureStorageFile cmdlet.

Type:	CloudFile
Position:	Named
Default value:	None
Required:	True
Accept pipeline input:	False
Accept wildcard characters:	False

-DestFilePath

Specifies the path of the destination file relative to the destination share.

Type:	String
Position:	Named
Default value:	None
Required:	True
Accept pipeline input:	False
Accept wildcard characters:	False

-DestShareName

Specifies the name of the destination share.

Type:	String
Position:	Named
Default value:	None
Required:	True
Accept pipeline input:	False

Required:	False
Accept pipeline input:	False
Accept wildcard characters:	False
