The FLTMC.exe command is run from an Administrator CMD prompt on the Windows file server. The syntax is as follows:
- To unload the EvFilter driver:
Fltmc unload EvFilter
- To load the EvFilter driver:
Fltmc load EvFilter
- To view all instances of loaded drivers:
Fltmc instances
- To attach the driver to a specific volume:
Fltmc attach EvFilter C:
- To detach the driver from a specific volume:
Fltmc detach EvFilter C:
Note: The Enterprise Vault File Placeholder Service on the file server should be restarted after unloading and reloading the filter driver.
For troubleshooting purposes the results can be saved to a text file. The syntax would be the same as above adding > [File name and path]
i.e.: Fltmc instances > C:\FilterInstance.log
