Virtual memory extends the physical memory (RAM) in your Media
Server using a portion of the hard drive as a location where you can move
unused data from physical memory.
Avid ships the Media Server with virtual memory already configured. If
you are installing a new Media Server, continue with "Installing the Media
Server Software" on page 32. If you are rebuilding the Media Server, then
set the virtual memory.
