I need more space on my D drive
_move the indexes to C drive
_move the transaction log to another server
_Boot the server off of the Smart Start CD and use the ACU to blow away the mirror
_Rescan the array (hopfully I'll see the new unused space - 144 GB)
_Expand the array to include the unused space
_Extend the logical drive (D drive)
I have these questions:
1) Do you think my plan will work?
2) How long do you think this will take?
3) Is there a way to do this online without bringing the server down?
4) If #3 is yes, how do I do it and would it be slower?
I am planning to do this over the upcoming weekend. Any help asap would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Re: I need more space on my D drive
let me see your plan is to add more space to D partition without replacing actual HDDs with bigger ones. Am I correct?
if so you have to use a 3 party software partitioner to add space from C or E to D.

Re: I need more space on my D drive
I am blowing away the mirrored 72 GB that I have already.
Anyways, it looks like my boss is having problem with the downtime this may involve. How about this:
_move the indexes to C drive
_move the transaction log to another server
_Clear out everything else in E drive
_Move the public store to E drive
Essentially, having only the private store on D drive and only the public store on the E drive.
How long do you think it will take to move a 35 GB pub1.edb and a 7.4 GB pub1.stm?
Thanks
