  And which parameter can be used to set the location of the ccmsetup folder?

  If you only have 400-500MB free on the OS (aka the boot) drive, then you've got bigger issues to begin with. You will never be able to patch these systems among other things. Adding a 100MB (or so) by moving the ccmsetup folder won't change that.

  Thank you Torsten, I have corrected the link and I concur with Jason.

  My point is that you can use SMSCACHEFLAGS properties to compress the folder.

  Example: CCMSetup.exe SMSCACHEFLAGS=NTFSONLY; COMPRESS

  I agree with you Jason, but is there any option we can change default path of CCMSETUP folder to some other drive so that client installable files get downloaded to another drive.

  According to the official documentation, no installation switch would help you doing that.

  Yes, you are right, no option in documentation. Do anyone have any workaround?
