I have a small business server 2003 where the C Drive is full. The E Drive has plenty of space. I intend to backup the Exchange server 2003 with NTBackup and then delete the E Drive. Then increase the C Drive and restore the Exchange server to the C drive. Obviously there are some path configurations in Exchange that will need to be changed but other than these path configurations, can anyone tell me if where my risk is? I'm doing this very blind. Never done it before. (I am making a full backup of the server in advance of all this).

The easiest procedure is to leave your C drive as is. First try to figure out why you are running out of disk space. There is a trial edition of FolderSizes http://www.foldersizes.com/ Most likely there are lots of temporary files, log files; the reporting DB, and Sharepoint DB can grow and take up space. What about pagefile.sys? Move it (or most of it do D). Perhaps you need to move some folders off of your C drive.

Hello, One way is to image your hard drive onto another larger hard drive then use a partitioning tool to re-partition the drive so that you have more space. Miguel Miguel Fra / Falcon ITS Computer & Network Support, Miami, FL Visit our Knowledgebase Sharepoint Site

Hi, I agree with Jon-Alfred, move pagefile, database or some folders into another disk is the simplest way to achieve this. If you would like to combine the disks, it’s a system issue rather than Exchange. I suggest you write the post in SBS newsgroup as Jon-Alfred had mentioned. Thanks, Elvis
