Just to expand on what nicola already said:

- stop NW

- make copy of mm, res and index (or better said, rename them)

- uninstall NW

- install NW, this time on D or wherever you want

- stop services

- delete mm, res, index on new location

- move old mm, res and index to new location

- start services

Note that if you had any resource which on backup server had pointed out to C: drive (like custom notification) and which was refering to NSR path, it will need to be altered manually.

Hi,

Please refer below article

This is for unix , but its slimier in windows also

To move some of the NetWorker folders to a different mount point you have to follow these steps:

1 - Stop NetWorker services.

2 - Rename the desired directory.

          For example: /nsr/tmp /nsr/tmp.old

3 - Create a new folder with the same name: /nsr/tmp

4 - Now we assign the new mount point to the new created folder:

  • At Windows: You can assign a mount point folder path to a drive in two ways:

                1 -  Go to Disk Manager, right-click the partition or volume where you want to mount-point folder path, and then click Change Drive Letter and Paths.

                      Click Add. Click Mount in the following empty NTFS folder, type path of an empty folder on a NTFS volume.

                2 - Using command line:               At command prompt: diskpart                         At diskpart prompt: list volume

                         At diskpart prompt: select volume

                         At diskpart prompt: assign [mount=path]

           Now copy all the data from the old directory (/nsr/tmp.old) to the new one (/nsr/tmp).

  • At Linux:

               Identify the partition/moint point you want to use:

           df -k

               Move the old directory to the moint point, but with the original name:

           mv /nsr/tmp.old /newmount/nsr/tmp

               Create a soft link between folders:

           ln -s /newmount/nsr/tmp /nsr/tmp

5 - Start NetWorker services.
