Use an Unprotected Volume in a Hibernate Once/Resume Many Environment (Standard 7 SP1)

7/8/2014

The Hibernate Once/Resume Many (HORM) functionality protects the system from unwanted write access and results in quicker start times. However, one of its limits is that all partitions on the system must be protected by the Enhanced Write Filter (EWF). You must configure your run-time image to support multiple partitions that do not have to be protected by EWF.

Creating this kind of advanced configuration requires a thorough understanding of EWF, Hibernate Once/Resume Many, and mounting and dismounting file systems. You should understand these concepts before you create an unprotected volume in this environment.
