Re: How much hard drive space will Trend WFBS Advanced 6.0 take?

There may be other solutions to the problem of the drive/partition being
full. What is the size of the partition?

Download windirstat, a very nice program to see what is using all the space.

Lastly, we can give you a list of stuff that can be moved to another partition,
and although I have not tried it, I would be suprised if WFBS could not be
installed on another partiton.

I have installed Trend WFBS (v.5.0) to 2 partitions for the same reasons:

C:\ - Client services: BM, Client Server Security Agent and Messaging
Security Agent (1.3 GB)
D:\ - Security Server (2.69 GB) - this is the weighty console web server
part...

It works fine.... v 6.0 would undoubtedly take up more space.
