(SCCM2007) Move SMSPKGSIG Directory to another drive

SCCM2007 creates a folder "SMSPKGSIG" on the drive where the SCCM ProgramFiles are installed.
To move the folder to another drive, you have to do the following actions:

  • Stop all SCCM related services (SMS_EXECUTIVE, SMS_SITE_COMPONENT_MANAGER, SMS_SITE_VSS_WRITER)
  • Edit the registry key: HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\SMS\Components\SMS_DISTRIBUTION_MANAGER\Signature Manager\SignatureRepository = <NewDrive>:\SMSPKGSIG
  • Move the folder SMSPKGSIG to the new drive
  • Start the SCCM services (SMS_SITE_VSS_WRITER, SMS_SITE_COMPONENT_MANAGER, SMS_EXECUTIVE, SMS_SITE_VSS_WRITER)

Note: Do not move the "SMSSIG$" folder, this procedure is only for the "SMSPKGSIG" folder...
Caution: This is not an official/supported procedure... implementation at your own risk !!!
