We need a Win32 console application (C++) that can store/restore NTFS features from one volume to another, specifically:
1. NTFS Permissions (Security Descriptors)
2. Reparse Points (Junctions, Hard Links, Mount Points, etc.)
The command line syntax would be:
[login to view URL] -store/restore [drive] [dat file]
Today our process copies over 100,000 files from one volume to another, so the performance of NTFSTOOL is critical. Again, NTFSTOOL is *not* responsible for copying files/folders, only for storing/restoring the NTFS attributes mentioned previously.
Here is some pseudo code:
Store()
For Each Folder In Volume
...If Folder Is Reparse Point Then
......Write folder path and reparse info to store
...Else
......Write folder path and security descriptor to store
......For Each File In Folder
.........If File Is Reparse Point Then
............Write file path and reparse info to store
.........Else
............Write file path and security descriptor to store
.........End If
......Next
......For Each Subfolder In Folder
.........Store()
......Next
...End If
Next
Restore()
For Each Entry In Store
...If Entry Is Reparse Point
......Recreate reparse point
...Else
......Apply security descriptor
...End If
Next
