change Vhost mannually

New Pleskian
Hi.

I have somewhere at 2000 domains.
i need to change path to vhost from W:host to D:\vhost
I copied all files from W to D drive and created symbollinks. Now all files stored in D:\vhost and symbollincs pointing to W:\vhost.
If i will use reconfigurator, will it recopy existing files or just will skip them? Becouse i have millions files in my vhost dir

Also i thought about change drive letter in windows OS. It wil be enought to just stop IIS service and plesk services for switching disk letter?

Can i just some how say plesk that he should search all vhost files in D:\vhost? With out process of copying files,becouse thay already exist there are.

700 GB and more than 50 millions files. This can take a few days. And will require server outage.

Now i'm planning to shut down all plesk and iis services and just switch D letter on W letter and then start all services.


I haven't used configuration because i can't control copying process and this process could take 1-2 day. I can't shut down service more than for 2-3 hours.

So my question, how can i just say to Plesk that he should search all vhost files in other drive.
