Move Active Directory

[Momozone]

I have installed Active Directory to my C: drive however there is only 3Gb left. I am putting the roaming profiles on another drive however I am just wondering should i be worried about the hard drive space? If so is there a way I can easily move the database and sysvol tree?

Is it possible to just have a shortcut to the sysvol directory in C:\WINDOWS to say D:\WINDOWS ?

3GB is plenty, just don't be installing other things to the root drive, put them elsewhere if you have to install them at all.

It just means my answers are from experience, not a book.

Make sure your swap file is somewhere else. Move the print spool if it's on that drive.

Do you use NTBACKUP? If so delete your old catalog files. They will slowly fill your C Drive over time so you don't realize where the space is going. You can also delete the uninstall directories for hotfixes. (provided your server is stable and you don't see a need to remove a hotfix)

I hope you find this post helpful.
