Hi All,I have moved SQL Server errorlog file location to SAN drive (Let's say E drive). There are no database files on E drive.If SAN goes down, E$ is not available, will SQL Server go down?Thanks in advance.---------------------------Sandesh - The Messenger |

Due to space crunch,I only changed errorlog location...binaries are on original location. If SQL wont go down, what will be SQL's reaction if error log location is not reachable?---------------------------Sandesh - The Messenger |
