Installing Applications on SunFSD

Some software applications cannot be installed to a network drive, including
SunFSD, and must be installed directly to the emulated disk.
Note – For specific information about issues with certain software installations and
SunFSD,refer to the “Troubleshooting Microsoft Windows Applications and SunFSD
Issues” on page 181.

Extended Drive (SunFSD) Issues

Youmight observe the following problems when using file system drives:
■File attributes (such as read-only and write-only) might not work correctly.
■File links do not work on file system drives. If you need to link to a file that is
located on a file system drive, move the fileto your C: or D: drive and then create
the link.
■If you create a desktop shortcut to a file on a filesystem drive, that shortcut does
not update automatically when you change the file’s location on the drive. You
need to delete the existing shortcut and create a new one.
