Details
Verify that the virtual memory on the server is RAM size times
1.5. Set both the initial and maximum size to this value. If the
virtual memory is smaller, increase it to this amount. Nortel
Networks recommends that the paging file be entirely located
on drive C.
TIP:
From the Start menu, choose Settings ➝ Control Panel.
1
2 Double-click System.
3 On the General tab, take note of the server's RAM size.
4 Click the Advanced tab, and then click Performance
Options.
5 Click Change to view and make changes to the virtual
memory settings.
6 Reboot the server if prompted.
Note: For a system with 512 Mbytes of RAM, the default
minimum paging file size is 768 Mbytes and the default
maximum paging file size is 1 Gbyte. To optimize performance,
Microsoft recommends that the minimum paging file size equal
the maximum paging file size. Nortel Networks recommends
that both the minimum and maximum paging file sizes be set to
1.5 * RAM. For 512 Mbytes of RAM, the maximum size allowed
for one paging file is 4.095 Gbytes. To overcome this limit, you
can use multiple paging files. For detailed instructions on how to
set up this configuration, see the article "How to Overcome
4,095-Gbytes Paging File Size Limit in Windows" in the
Microsoft Knowledge Base. If you are using multiple paging
files, do not create paging files on database partitions. If any of
the following conditions apply, the default system complete
memory dump is not generated when the system stops
unexpectedly:
Multiple paging files are distributed over separate disks
The paging file is not located on the system boot drive (C:
drive)
Physical RAM size is larger than 2 Gbytes
