A. Normally the remote storage scan is scheduled to run once a day however you can force it to run if you want.

  1. Start the Remote Storage MMC (Start - Programs - Administrative Tools - Remote Storage)
  2. Select 'Managed Volumes'
  3. Right click on the volume and from the context menu select All Tasks -> Copy Files to Remote Storage

  4. Click OK to start the check

It may take some time to run but you can monitor the progress using the Scheduled Tasks MMC snap-in (Start - Programs - Accessories - System Tools - Scheduled Tasks). When complete the task be removed from the list.
