Unable to move the transport database Ex2010
Hello! we are trying to move the smtp database using the move-transportdatabase script. The path we want to use is on a mount point. However, when we run the script we get and error saying that there isn't enough disk space. The thing is that the script complains on the drive that holds the mounted volume not the volume it self...should we be able to move the transport database to a mounted volume or not? Configuration on our server: anchor drive d:\ (500mb) mounted volume d:\exlogs (50GB) Regards, UC

hi, Per my understanding that you want to change the localtion of the queue database. Since you can't use the script to move the queue database, please try to use the another method to move the dabase. You can follow the steps in the below link. http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb125177.aspx hope can help you thanks, CastinLu TechNet Community Support
