This issue has been solved. See solution.
Hello to all
Does anybody know if it possible to change de "Enteprise Vault\Reports" folder path?
I found the "LogFolderPath", but only works for the Backtrace Utility and not for the scheduled or run now task.
Thanks!!

I don't think that is possible. Any specific reason why you want to change this?

The reason is because there is not much free space at the C:\ drive in the EV Server. The customer wants to run a full FSA archive in a target server that holds about 5 TB of data.
It will generate a long log file in the server, and it will cause the services to stop .
Thanks
No GertjanA is correct its appended to the install path and it cant be changed I'm afraid.
Possible to check.
Temp location of the VSA - move that to another drive.
Temp location in general - remove old files.
Any (large) programs you don't need? Uninstall
Verify 'my documents', try to remove profiles that are not needed on that server.
Is your page file on the c-drive, move it.
Verify sub-folders under ..\reports, delete old files.
Empty recycle bin :-)
In the Windows folder, remove the _$uninst folders (contain windows update files, to be able to uninstall updates. these take up lot of space, but who uninstalls an update) or move to a different drive.

But you can change it...
Do this when things are nice and quiet.
Create a folder in the new location, eg E:\ReportsFolder
Copy the contents of the current 'Reports' folder to the new location
Delete the 'Reports' folder from inside the EV program folder.
Run:
MKLINK /J "c:\program files (x86)\enterprise vault\reports" E:\ReportsFolder
Bingo. :)

@GertjanA Thanks for your replies. This best practice is applied (modify the Temp path)
@Rob.Wilcox Thanks for your solution!! At the moment it's working. I will do a grow archiving task this night. I expect all work fine. Thanks!!
