  • 1.  EfaData on System Reserved Partition Filling Up

    Posted Sep 16, 2013 11:41 AM

    When The server OS was installed it created a 100MB System Reserved Drive. I am getting alerts for our monitoring system saying that it is now 95% full.

     

    When looking at the drive I see a folder: "D:\System Volume Information\EfaData\sdmys_DB733B1456F912F5B3724C15", that is using up 64.3MB and it is growing, it was 62MB 3 days ago.

    What can I do to:

    1. keep it from growing

    2. move it to somewhere it has more space

    3. keep it from writing to the system reserved drive

     

    I have tried to delete it and I can't, what happens if the drive fills will it crash the OS?

    Hello,

    Could you try migrating to SEPM / SEP 12.1 RU3?

    Is this issue occurying on SEP client machine or the SEPM server machine?

    Is this issue occurying on lot of machines?

    EFA database rarely grows more then 4-6 MB. It can grow as large as 20 MB in extreme situation when the database needs an update. 

    You may also try uninstalling SEP client from the machine and try reinstalling it again on the machine.

    Hope that helps!!
