I am almost out of space on the c (system) partition of my EX 470. I have done all I can do to conserve space, and have very little installed on the drive besides the OS that came with the MSS. A couple of add ins and a couple of small applications. The sys volume is just small at 20GB.

So I am seeking advice on how to handle this. I need to upgrade space on the drive, but not particularly keen on reinstalling the whole works. And not particularly sure how to go about doing it in the MSS/WHS environment. Also not sure how this will impact my share drives.

How have others dealt with this situation? If there are any guides out there, I would appreciate and pointers to them as well.

thanks!

Something is hogging space that should not be... try http://www.jam-software.com/treesize_free/

Try clearing out old logs. Go to settings in the console and click on Toolkit 1.1. Click on Log Options then delete logs. That should free up space.

I do not see any "Toolkit 1.1" or anything remotely like that in my console. Is this an add-in?

Pretty sure that it installed with PP2 or PP3. Are you up to date on power packs for your system?

If you don't have it, you can install it here:

It doesn't come with WHS, you have to install it manually.

Have you tried our Add-Ins?

I installed WHS Toolkit 1.0, deleted logs and it freed up a bit of space. Most effective was that I added a 1.5 TB drive to my pool. This freed up about 5GB on the system volume, so I'm in good shape now.

Thanks all!
