Renaming the C:\ drive in server 2008 R2

I have problem which I don't believe there is a resolution, but I'll ask anyway
Here is the backstory, we have a citrix environment where a certain application needs to write a file to the users' C:\ drive in order to work. In our old presentation server 4.5 farm this was no problem. When we would build the server we would rename the
C:\ drive to the N:\ drive on the server 2003 servers (using drive remap utility). When the users' session was started there would only be one C:\ visible to the app so it would correctly write to the users' C:\ drive. Now we are moving to xenapp 6.5 which
runs on server 2008 R2, and from what I have found online renaming the C:\ drive to a different drive letter (using Drive Remap64 utility) is not recommended/supported. So the app will not launch as it tries to write to the C:\ drive of the server and
is denied. So my question is now, after the server has been built is there any way to rename the C:\ drive to another drive letter? or any way to open up permissions on the root of C;\ so that the "everyone" group has modify access?

have you tried diskpart?

  • Officejet 8500 a910 driver for server 2008

    I was checking out drivers for the Officejet 8500 A910 a few weeks ago and there was a driver for Server 2008 and not Server 2003.  That was ok because we were migrating to server 2008 R2.  Tried to download driver today and now there is not driver for server period.

    Hi,
    Below are the drivers for Win Server 2008.

  • How to delete the Folder from sql server 2008

    Hi all,
    I was trying to delete the folder from sql server 2008 with the below script
    DECLARE @path VARCHAR(256) -- path for backup files
    DECLARE @cmd VARCHAR(8000)
    DECLARE @folderName VARCHAR(256) -- filename for backup
    SET @folderName = + (CONVERT(varchar(10), GETDATE()-7, 112))  -- 7 days back date folder name
    SET @path = 'I:\Backup_Test\' + @folderName -- Folder path
    SET @cmd = 'del ' + @path -- Delete
    EXEC master..xp_cmdshell @cmd
    --Print @cmd
    This is not working it was asking the Confirmation (I:\Backup_Test\20100629\*, Are you sure (Y/N)? ) what will i do to the delete the folder.
    Thanks,
    Prasad R.

    I would notice   you that T-SQL does not play well to do things like that. Do not you want using .net language to delete folders?
    Old method is
    declare @HR int, @CFOLDER varchar(255),@FSO int
        set @CFOLDER='D:\folder\'
        EXEC @HR = sp_OACreate 'Scripting.FileSystemObject', @FSO OUT
        EXEC @HR = sp_OAMethod @FSO, null, 'DeleteFolder', @CFOLDER 
    Now regarding to your second question please examine xp_fileexist  system stored procedure
    CREATE FUNCTION dbo.fn_file_exists(@filename VARCHAR(300))
      RETURNS INT
    AS
    BEGIN
      DECLARE @file_exists AS INT
      EXEC master..xp_fileexist @filename, @file_exists OUTPUT
      RETURN @file_exists
    END
    GO
    -- test
    SELECT dbo.fn_file_exists('c:\a.txt')

  • Renaming the OEM middle tier server name

    Hi,
    I have been asked about renaming the OEM middle tier server. If I do this, what things will I need to change on the managed servers to allow the agent on these servers to contact the newly named server? Are there also database changes to make in the OMS?
    Thanks.

    I don't think you can with 10g grid control, the hostname gets buried into too many files. I may well be wrong but I can't anything in the docs or on metalink.

    We just have switched our local server from 32-bit to 64-bit machine and now we have Windows Server 2008 R2 Service
    Pack 1 with MS Office 2007. On server we are running an application in ASP.Net 3.5 using visual studio

    when user tries to import data from Excel to Database (SQL Server 2005), error comes as
    "microsoft.ace.oledb.12.0 provider is not registered on local machine".
    I have tried a solution by installing Access Database Engine 2007 Office System Driver on the Server, but the error
    was same. Now what should I do to resolve this problem??? Should we install Office 2010 64-bit on the Server or is there any other solution???

  • OraOLEDB not appearing as an option in the 'Providers' list SQL Server 2008

    Hi there,
    I'm trying to create a linked server to an Oracle 10g database from SQL Server 2008 R2, but the required OraOLEDB.oracle driver is not appearing in the list of providers. We are trying to recreate our prod environment where we use the 11g client to connect to the 10g db, so I downloaded the installed the 11gClient ODADC (11.1.0.7). I have the Oracle folder in my 'Start' menu (Windows 2008 O/S), and it looks like the Oracle install was successful but in the registry (regedit) I don't see Oracle listed as 'software' in the local_machine/software listing.
    I set my Oracle home to C:\Oracle and the path under there is
    product\11.1.0\client_1
    I've also read in some other posts that I should have both a 32 bit and 64 bit Oracle driver installed - I'm assuming that 11g is 64-bit and 9i is 32 bit?
    Should I be able to install just the client or do I need to install the Server as well?
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks in advance for...

    I figured this out - we didn't have the 64-bit version of the driver.

  • No HCK test for ndis filter driver in server 2008 R2

    I am running HCK 2.1 to test my ndis filter driver.
    1. The testing client is running server 2008 R2.
    2. The driver is built for win7 x64 with vs 2012.
    However, there is no test avaiable in the HCK console. Even I choose "Add Features" in "devices and printers" or "software devices", I still can not find the proper tests. But
    if I build the driver for win8 x64 and run the tests in server 2012, the "ndis 6.5 logo test" shows up. 
    Now I do need a signature for win7 and 2008 R2. 
    Does anyone know how to add "ndis logo test" for win7 in HCK 2.1?

    anyone can help?

  • Can't log in as the Administrator on Windows Server 2008 R2

    Hello,
    I have a windows server 2008 R2 (DCSERVER) as the domain controller and about 10 Windows 7 Client machines on the network. I also have configured a WSUS server & File Server on this machine. Everything was working fine, until I added another Windows
    7 Machine to the domain. I couldn't login to the domain and got the error "the security database on the server does not have a computer account for this workstation trust". I looked up on Google and tried some tricks - mainly adding the
    attributes DNSHostName & ServicePrincipalName to the affected computer and the deleting the computer from the group
    (since the previous trick didn't work). 
    But after trying the above I observed that I can't login to my DCSERVER either. I get the same error - "the security database on the server does not have a computer account for this workstation trust" 
    Please help me fix this issue.

    Hi,
    Thanks for your post.
    According to your description, you cannot login the domain from Windows 7 client.

    Hello,
    What you want to do is execute a command on the host operating system.
    This can be done with function module SXPG_COMMAND_EXECUTE.
    This module will execute commands that have been predefined in SAP. To see what is available look in SM49.
    If you have the autorizations you can create your own or ask for it to be created.
    More general information can be found [here|http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/ABAP/CreationofExternalCommandswiththehelpofUNIXCodingin+SAP].
    Hope this is helpful.
