Hi,

How do I re-install exchange5.5 onto a different NTFS partition without losing all the current settings? This is to free up some space one the current NTFS partition.

Thanks
Ed

I would NOT go this route.

1 option would to do a COMPLETE backup of your entire Exchange installation and restore to a different partition.

I'm assuming that your Information Stores (priv.edb and pub.edb) are growing too big for the partitionthey currently reside on. If this is your primary problem, you can move the Information Stores using the Exchange Performance Optimizer. The Optimizer is the ONLY sure way to change the location of Exchange working files.

Hope this helps.
