Move logs
Hi!,
Exchange
2003 SP2.
I
move the
logs
to another
drive,
as
I do?,
I
create the directory
with the
same permissions

create your own
Exchange?

before moving
the
logs?

See below.
I assume you want to change the location of the logs.

When moving, you share the directory and set the permissions or should I perform that function.
I backup Exchange before?

1. It's in that KB above.
"You can move the log files and database files to any folder that you want to create. When you move logs and database files, you may want to create the Exchsrvr\Mdbdata file structure for consistency reasons, but you are not obligated to do so.
You must grant the following default permissions to the new Mdbdata folder that contains the log files and database files:
Administrators: Full Control Authenticated Users: Read and Execute, List Folder Contents, Read Creator Owner: None Server Operators: Modify, Read and Execute, List Folder Contents, Read, Write
System: Full Control"
2. It would be nice to backup Exchange before, always a good idea.
