  • 1.  Relocation of SEP Virus defs database

    Posted Aug 22, 2014 02:00 PM

    Hello,

    We have several servers that are running low of disk space due to the virus defs database filling up.  We'd like to be able to move the database to a much larger partition that is located on the same server.  So far we haven't found any documentation that shows how or if this can be done.  Can we accomplish such action?  Thank you!

    It's not possible. It's hard-coded to stay on C:

    Some further reading...

    What files from Symantec Endpoint Protection installation are installed to the C:\ Drive, when the application is installed to a different drive

     

    Cause

    There are some items that are hard-coded to install to the C:\ drive because they have shared components or are themselves shared by other Symantec products.

    Solution

    This is by design, and cannot be changed.

    Not possible, they will always be on OS drive.
