I am backing up 20,000 files off a 3GB hard drive to a network drive
using xcopy. This is the command I am executing, echo. | xcopy c:\ x:\
/E > logfile. after it is half way through I keep getting insuffient
memory error. I have enough Ram and virtial memory. How can I fix
this? Is there a way? thanks.

I just had same error on a Win2003 server xcopy-ing from remote UNC to
local path; problem seemed to be too-long file path/names.
local path; problem seemed to be too-long file path/names.
To fix, i mapped both remote share and local dir as deep as possible on
the local server.
example:
[remote server]
G: mapped to \\serverName\d$\shares\folder
[local server]
N: mapped to \\localServer\e$\shares\backup\folder
[backup script sample]
xcopy G:\subfolder1 N:\subfolder1 /G /O /T /L /I /N /U /X /?
actual options i use:
/C /D /E /I /R /Y /X
i do hope this helps!
