Next, you need to locate the volume containing ntds.dit and the log files. By default, these components reside in the \ntds folder on the boot volume, but this location might have changed during the Dcpromo process. To locate the files, open a command prompt and enter the command
ntdsutil
At the ntdsutil: prompt, enter the word
files
At the file maintenance: prompt, enter the word
info
to display the location of the AD database files, log files, and other associated files. Note the location of the database and log files.
To move the database and log files to a target disk, type the following commands at the ntdsutil: prompt:
move db to <target>
move logs to <target>
where target is the target folder on the target disk. Quit Ntdsutil and reboot the DC.
