This article explains how to view the location of the content index for a query server. This is the location on the query server to which the content index continually propagates from an index server. You might want to check this location, for example, to determine whether it provides enough disk space to accommodate the index that is propagated. For more information, see View or change content index locations (Office SharePoint Server 2007).

To perform the following procedure, you must be a shared services administrator and a member of the Administrators group on the local computer.
