Not only can it cause major damage with an antivirus running, if the backup system is configured wrong and you back up the IFS drive you can do some really interesting things to your information store... One of the things that I do when installing a new exchange server is always remove the IFS drive, this is especially important when you are working in a environment that has some guys working with the OS, other guys with the backups and so on.
-----Original Message----- From: Jeffrey Dubyn [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 6. tammikuuta 2003 21:21 To: Exchange Discussions Subject: M drive mapping removal? I came across this Q article: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;Q305145&sd=tech Which explains "...Microsoft recommends that you remove the drive M mapping to the IFS, unless you are using the IFS for specific reasons..." I have never seen a reason to use this feature, and have even seen Norton AntiVirus cause corruption when the customer "accidentally" scanned the M drive. Pros/Cons of removing the M drive? Has anyone incorporated this into their best practices in deploying Exchange?
