I am having a problem with my Server 2003 64 bit server. I am running out of harddrive space on my E: drive. It seems that System Volume information is trying to take up all of the space and is growing. I've tried running cleanmgr and going to more but system volume information is greyed out. I've tried to stop the volume shadow copy service and delete some of the older files but it wouldn't let me. I believe this is something Symantec is leaving behind.<br />
<br />
thanks for any advice.

System Volume Information is extremely large

The term "Backup" means the methods and processes involved to copy computer data (system data as well as application data) to media other than the ones where the data originally live (disk, tape, optical, cloud). "Restore" in turn means the methods and processes involved in data recovery, i. e., bringing back copied computer data to their original location. Backup/Restore primarily serves as a means of protection against data loss, be it due to disaster, corruption or sabotage. It can also be used for recovering data from an earlier point in time and even for cloning machines or applications. There is a wide variety of backup/restore software available, from expensive commercial products to free or open source tools.
