Microsoft Systems Management Server versions 1.0, 1.1, 1.2
SUMMARY
By default, Microsoft Systems Management Server client software is

article discusses the steps necessary to allow SMS client software (Windows
NT, MS-DOS, and OS/2) to be installed on a drive other than the drive with
the most free disk space.
MORE INFORMATION
For Windows NT and MS-DOS Clients
- Make a backup copy of the SMSLS.BAT file.
- Use a text editor such as Notepad to modify the SMSLS.BAT file.
For login scripts and manual execution of SMSLS.BAT, find the
following and add the appropriate switches according to the
syntax below.
Login Scripts:
CLI_DOS.EXE -pa:/p:%%SMS_UNC%%\ -pa:/d:<another drive>:
CLI_NT.EXE -pa:/p:%%SMS_UNC%%\ -pa:/d:<another drive>:
CLI_DOS.EXE -pa:/d:<another drive>:
CLI_NT.EXE -pa:/d:<another drive>:
Manual Execution of SMSLS.BAT:
CLI_DOS.EXE -pa:/d:<another drive>:
CLI_NT.EXE -pa:/d:<another drive>:
For OS/2 Clients
- Make a backup copy of the SMSLS.CMD file.
- Use a text editor such as Notepad to modify the SMSLS.CMD file.
For login scripts and manual execution of SMSLS.CMD, find the
following and add the appropriate switches according to the
syntax below.
Login Scripts:
CLI_OS2.EXE -pa:/d:<another drive>:
Manual Execution of SMSLS.CMD:
CLI_OS2 /d:<another drive>:
NOTE: If the above additions are not made to the SMSLS.BAT or SMSLS.CMD
file, only manual execution of the file works. All variables must be
proceeded by "-pa" (without quotes). It is not possible to combine
variables following a single "-pa" in the command line.
