Hello everybody

Unfortunately I had GeoNet in finding still no luck here in.
We are looking for a batch or script which copies an existing PGDB with data content in a FGDB or transformed?
This automates the easiest or just as a batch.
Has here a solution?

Many thanks and greetings
Mike

Here the links to the 10.3 Help mentioned by Luke Pinner , since the "#" sign in the URL is still causing the link to direct to the start page of the Help:

In addition, not sure if this would work, but when you select in ArcCatalog (of the Catalog window) the elements of the PGDB and copy them into the FGDB, does this work?

You are looking for Python code. Do you have many PGDB's and looking for a way to process all of these at once?

Have a look at arcpy.da.walk and arcpy.management.copy.
