Hello,

We need move index location because we cannot extend it. I found this article :

 https://www.veritas.com/support/en_US/article.HOWTO59084

 But I dont want to change drive letter. So question is Can I stop all services then backup and restore all data on index folder which is E: drive to F drive then switch the letters. Then Start the services is this going to work?

EV:11.0.1

Os:2008r2

Thanks

Hi,

someone correct me if I am wrong but this should work in general. Make sure that permissions are set correctly.

Hi folks,

That is correct. If the drive letter will stay the same, there is no need to make any change in the EV directory database. Just make sure that if there is any other EV data on the same partition you move it along as well.
