RE: redimensioning OS and logs partitions

2008-03-20 Thread Miguel Gonzalez
I was thinking of using rescuecd linux live cd but I'm
really scare that I could crap the machine out.

Also, If any of the processes can be done while the
machine is online would be great (not need that the
Exchange services are running, but at least that I can
do it remotely - at least for the data drive, not the
OS).

Subject: redimensioning OS and logs partitions

Hi,

 I have three partitions in my SBS 2003 server.

 C - OS
 D - Exchange databases (only)
 E - Exchange logs and AV

 C and E are partitions within the same RAID array
(RAID 1+0). I want to shrink the E drive and expand
the C drive.

 The partitions are basic (not dynamic) and I've read
that diskpart could help me to shrink the E drive.
However apparently it wouldn't of no help for the C
drive.

 Is it possible to shrink the E drive partition so the
unallocated space is left in the beginning of the E
partition and not at the end?

 Any clarification that I need to know?

 Thanks,

 Miguel
