Subject: USMT Error Codes
I was recently configuring the User State Migration Tool for a customer’s MDT server when, during the testing phase, the USMT began failing with an error code (‘return code’ or ‘rc’ when you read the MDT log files). I searched the USMT documentation on TechNet looking for the explanation of what the error code meant, only to discover that I could not find any information at all.
So, after a bit of asking around internally at Microsoft, I have managed to obtain the below list of error codes. I should point out though that this list of error codes is only for version 3.01 of the USMT, I don’t know if there are differences for any past or future versions of the tool.
