Moving Migrations to a new drive

Steve_TTI

We have a number of partitions containing migrated cab files, due to space limitations we need to relocate these files to other drives with potentially different drive letters. 

 

I haven't been able to find the procedure for this to date.  Does anyone have experience with this?  I looked in the obvious places like the PartitionEntry table in the DB but it doesn't appear the location is stored there.

 

Thanks in advance for the help

The easiest way to do this is present the new drives, stop EV services, copy the data, modify drive letters in Windows, start EV. Alternatively if you have access to something like OpenMigrator on an EMC SAN you can minimize downtime.

 

The path to the drive is stored in SQL but I don't remember where, try rooting around the "vaultstore..." tables.

Thanks for the response, we are looking to split different migrated stores that are currently all on one drive to multiple drives, so the drive letters will have to change.
