Moving MDBDATA   
Hi,

Using ESM, I moved the content of MDBDATA (Priv & pub) from the C: drive to
a larger drive/partition  (E:) on the same server.  Everythng is still
working fine except for OWA. In IIS, I cannot see any of the mailboxes as if
the backofficestorage is still "pointing" to the original location on the C:
drive.

Does someone know how to update the physical path/location associated with
"backOfficeStorage" to reflect the MDBDATA's new location?

All help is much appreciated.

Environment: Exchg 2003-SP2 runnning on W2003 with AD

Thanks,
Claude

Presuming you moved everything successfully as per 
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=821915&SD=tech, OWA should be working 
fine. What exactly is the symptom?

The move was indeed done according to the above procedure.
I get an HTTP 404 when I try to get to
http://127.0.0.1/exchange/%usermailbox% and from IIS I cannot see the
mailboxes in the right pane of the screen when I set focus on the Exchange
virtual directory (under Default web site).  Also won't display any content
under the EXAdmin virtual dir. which also happens to be pointing to the
"backofficeStorage".

Re: Moving MDBDATA   
Restart IIS and see if that resolves the problem.
