By default, the drives on the client system are automatically mapped to drive
letters on the MetaFrame server during logon. The server tries to match the client
drives to the client drive letters; for example, the client’s first floppy disk drive to
A, the second floppy disk drive to B, the first hard drive partition to C, etc. This
allows the user access to client drive letters in the same way from local or remote
sessions.
These drive letters are often used by the drives on the MetaFrame server. In this
case, client drives are mapped to other drive letters. The MetaFrame server starts
at V and searches backward for free drive letters.
See Chapter 2, “Installing MetaFrame,” for information on changing server drive
letters during MetaFrame Setup.

The MetaFrame server tries to match the client drives to the client drive letters; for
example, the client’s first floppy disk drive to A, the second floppy disk drive to
B, the first hard drive partition to C, etc. MetaFrame Setup offers to move the
Terminal Server drives to allow ICA Client drives to map to their local drive
letters.
If you want to change the server drive letter assignments after MetaFrame Setup is
complete, you should change the drive letters before installing any applications. If
you have already installed applications, their INI files and registry settings may
point to the wrong drive letters and cause the applications to operate incorrectly.
à To change drive letter assignments
1. No users should be logged into the system and all programs must be closed.
Logon as an administrator at the MetaFrame server console.
2. Start Disk Administrator.
3. Select the first drive partition, usually C. On the Tools menu, click Assign
Drive Letter.
Enter the drive letter for the first partition. Most ICA client computers have
one or two hard drives. Therefore, setting the MetaFrame server drives starting
at drive M or N should leave enough drive letters free for client drives. Click
OK to make the change. If you change the partition containing the
%systemroot% directory, an error message appears stating that the drive is
being used. Click OK. Disk Administrator offers to set the drive to change and
reboot the server when you exit Disk Administrator.
