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.
ÃTo 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.
