Problem: running out of space and WSUS update DB file (susdb.mdf file) is using 22 GB of the 128 GB of space on the RAID.
The plan was to follow these instructions: http://blogs.technet.com/b/sbs/arch...-database-files-to-a-different-partition.aspx "How to Move the WSUS Content"
I had the customer purchase and connect a "My Passport" 500 GB ext. drive. The drive shows up in the "Computer MGMT" console and I formatted it as the S: Drive. (NTSF with 512 MB per sector, http://social.technet.microsoft.com...xternal-backup-drives-compatibility-list.aspx)
In the Windows SBS Console on the Server Storage tab the only drives that show are:
c: 136 GG (shadow copies enabled)
d: 136 GB (shadow copies enabled)
e: drive 546 GB (shadow copies enabled)
The F: (Backup Drive 1 F:, 596 GB (shadow copies disabled)) does not show but I believe that is standard for the backup drive?
The new S: drive (shadow copies disabled) does not and when I run the Move the WSUS content wizard from the Windows SBS Console the following msg appears:
"Either there are no NTFS drives available, or the available drives do not have enough capacity for the data."
I passed this by another tech and they think it is a incompatible or bad driver.
Anyone dealt with this before?
