move opendental database and A-Z images from C to D driver
move opendental database and A-Z images from C to D driver
I setup everything OD on C drive of the server computer. recently i am having trouble with windows xp not able to boot up (3 times in 3 weeks). then I have to restore my C drive image from backup, problem is my backup image might be a day or two old. then I lost x days of finished work in OD. Thus, I like to move my OD database (c:/mysql/data/oddatabase) and A-Z image (c:/opendentalimages) to my d drive. But from the OD choose database screen, how do I select d drive of the server computer. from what I know, you can only select server computer (\\server\) which points to the C:/mysql/data/xxxdatabase, not D:/mysql/data/xxxdatabase.

First, move the files. Then edit the my.ini file to point to the new database.
