Changing path of LogFiles in Exchange server 2007
Hi Experts, There are two Servers with HUB and CAS roles installed on Exchange server 2007. They are in NLB and working fine Just observed one thing which is making me crazy. One of the server is generating very high volume of IIS logs IN %SystemDrive%\inetpub\logs\LogFiles. Every week approx 10GB but second one is generating very less 1-2 GB. As they are in NLB so I expect same size of logs to be created on both servers plus I want to change the path for LOG so that my servers could run smoothly. Right now path is "%SystemDrive%\inetpub\logs\LogFiles". When I click on Logging on IIS its give me path that seems to be changeable. Can we change without impacting services? Right now Im zipping and deleting logs. Are they important to run services. Regards Suman B. Singh

You can move that path, but you will need to run IISRESET for the change to take effect. The other option is to turn logging off completely. The very high generation of logs is quite common, the usual cause is ActiveSync clients from Apple (Tablet, iPhone etc). SimonSimon Butler, Exchange MVP Blog | Exchange Resources | In the UK?

Move them to another drive and just save them for 30 days or whatever's suitable for you But yes, it generates a lot of log files Jonas Andersson | Microsoft Community Contributor Award 2011 | MCITP: EMA 2007/2010 | Blog: http://www.testlabs.se/blog | Follow me on twitter: jonand82
