Hello, All.

I have a citrix server that filled up. It had 132KB left. I cleared out the temp folder freeing up about a Gig so that production could move forward for a little while.

I really need to increase the size of the allocation for c:
This is the current allocation:
c: 1.07 GB Free of 71.9 GB
e: 199 GB free of 201 GB

Is it possible to grow a drive in line like this? e: has plenty of space to borrow from.

I am babysitting while the network admin is out on vacation so I am a little bit of a novice with servers.

Thanks everyone.

It depends on the setup of the server, how the disks are configured etc. Without knowing the configuration, it's hard to advise.

Where I work, we use a product called Treesize to display what being used where. Perhaps you can install the freeware and probably cut down version to find other files, etc that could be archived, moved or deleted

 
Thank you for responding.

In the end, it was a fall back to the Classic Help Desk scenario. Reboot. The citrix server creates user profiles for all log ons and sometimes it doesn't remove them after disconnect. Rebooting clears out all of those old orphaned log on files. Freed up 16 GB.
