<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
This is a fresh install of Exchange 2016 CU8 on windows server 2016 standard.<br />
<br />
Driver letters:<br />
<br />
C: OS<br />
<br />
D: Exchange 2016 CU8 ISO (mounted)<br />
<br />
After Exchange 2016 CU8 install, the ISO was dismounted and I setup a new data drive for Exchange. The data drive took drive letter D: by default. When I restarted the server, D:\AdvancedDataGovernanceL<wbr />ogs folder was created.<br />
<br />
If I change the data drive letter from D: to something else like E: drive, D:\AdvancedDataGovernanceL<wbr />ogs folder does not get created when the server is restarted.<br />
<br />
What is AdvancedDataGovernanceLogs<wbr /> folder and how do you change the location?

Exchange is the server side of a collaborative application product that is part of the Microsoft Server infrastructure. Exchange's major features include email, calendaring, contacts and tasks, support for mobile and web-based access to information, and support for data storage.

Exchange

Within Internet message handling services (MHS), a message transfer agent or mail transfer agent (MTA) or mail relay is software that transfers electronic mail messages from one computer to another using a client–server application architecture. A MTA implements both the client (sending) and server (receiving) portions of the Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP). The terms mail server, mail exchanger, and MX host may also refer to a computer performing the MTA function. The Domain Name System (DNS) associates a mail server to a domain with mail exchanger (MX) resource records containing the domain name of a host providing MTA services.

Email Servers

A server is a computer program or a machine that waits for requests from other machines or software (clients) and responds to them. This architecture is called the client–server model. The clients may run on the same computer or may connect to the server over a network. The purpose of a server is to share data or hardware and software resources among clients. Typical computing servers are database servers, file servers, mail servers, print servers, web servers, game servers, and application servers.
