How to get Miration Data Information?

Question

Currently we migrating data to Isilon SMB share. Does anyone know how to get the migrating data information. We need get information about: How many data still not migrated to Isilon How long it will take time to complete the data migration We tried using the robocopy commands and also winmerge tools, but it take time too long. We need gather those information immediately, so we can ask permission from customer management for cut off time.

This paper discusses various tools for data migration, and includes progress monitoring for some scenarios:

Another paper introduces a 3rd party migration tool by a Dell EMC partner, you might contact the vendor for progress monitoring:

In case you know the size of the data set on the source storage, you can also set up directory quota (just accounting, no limits) on the Isilon target directory and watch the numbers (capacity used and file counts) growing...
