It should be BUT that will depend on how far back you want to keep your log 
files.

>>Can I move parts of BES to D:?

Once D: is added, you can change the logfiles so that they output to D: instead 
of C: that alone will give C: plenty of breathing room. Not sure if you can 
change/move anything else tho (besides the logfiles)

Hope this helps.

Subject: [Bes-admins] BPS -> BES upgrade tips

Within the next week I plan to upgrade our current BPS 4.1 to BES 5.0.  
This is my first contact with BES as opposed to BPS.

I understand that this is an in-place upgrade, and I don't have to create a new 
BES install.

BES is currently installed on Win2003 server which is running as a virtual 
machine.  It has ~20 GB C: drive and the OS and BPS are taking up just a bit 
less than 8 GB.

I have links to documentation, but I am looking for tips, not instructions or 
steps.  Stuff that may be hidden or non-existent in the documentation that any 
of you found through experience.

I guess my first question is going to be whether 20 GB is big enough, probably 
~50-60 users?  It would be easier to add storage by adding a D: 
drive rather than expanding the C: drive.  Can I move parts of BES to D:?

Thanks for any suggestions.
