File Server Migration Wizard - Single 2008 storage server to 2008 storage server enterprise cluster

I'm trying to migrate from a single file server to a cluster (around 400 shares). old server is 2008 Storage Server. New cluster is 2008 Storage Server enterprise. I can't robocopy the data and use a registry export/import to recreate the shares as the cluster registry entry for shares are held differently in the registry.

I'm now looking to use Microsoft File Server Migration Wizard, but am having difficulty. It worked form a test server to the cluster using test shares, but if i try and copy from my live file server to the cluster, i get an error.

The setup and validation work fine. When it gets to the copy stage, it gets half ay through copying files, then throws up a fatal error:

"A Fatal Error has occured please contact Microsoft... Object reference not set to an instance of an object. Stack Trace: at FSMigration.RobocopyWrapper.ParseOutputLine(String line, RobocopyOutput Tag& tag, String&filename, UInt64& filesize)..."

Has anyone seen this before?

Any ideas where to start to fix it?

Many Thanks.
