Move Users Redirected Documents Data

Applies To: Windows SBS 2008

Data from user's folders, such as their Documents folders, can be redirected to the User's Redirected Documents Data Store on the server that is running Windows SBS 2008. With all these files located on the server, you can easily move the data to another disk when you need more space.

Important

You cannot move the users' redirected Documents data if a critical system operation is being performed (such as Backup, Recovery, or System Update).

To move the users' redirected Documents data

1. Open the Windows SBS Console.

2. Click the Backup and Server Storage tab, and then click Server Storage.

3. In the Tasks pane, click Move Users' Redirected Documents Data.

4. Review the introductory text, and then click Next.

5. The wizard checks your server for available hard disk drives and partitions where you can move the users’ redirected Documents data to.

6. If you have not configured Backup, you receive a message asking if you want to configure Backup and back up the data before moving it. Do one of the following:
