If the memory size exceeds 2GB due to added memory,
change the write debugging information to [Kernel Memory
Dump] before adding the memory. The size of the specified
debugging information (memory dump) also changes when
adding memory. We recommend you check (and change, if
applicable) the size of the empty space in the debugging
information (memory dump) write destination drive.
4. Specify "Complete memory dump" and modify [Dump file:] in the [Write
debugging information] group box.
e.g.Write the debug information in D drive in the file named MEMORY.DMP.
5. Click [Settings] on the [Performance] group box.
The [Performance Options] window is displayed.
6. Click [Advanced] tab on the [Performance Options] window.
7. Click [Change] on the [Virtual memory] group box.
8. Modify [Initial Size] in the [Paging file size for selected drive] box to the value
larger than [Recommended], and click [Set].
■
The above-mentioned paging file size is recommended for
collecting debug information (memory dump). A paging file
with an initial size large enough to store the dump file in the
boot drive is required.
It may be impossible to collect correct debugging information
due to a virtual memory shortage if the paging file is insuffi-
cient, so we recommend you set a paging file large enough
for the entire system.
■
For more information on "Recommended" value, see "Parti-
tion Size to be Created" described earlier.
■
In case the memory is expanded, re-specify the paging file to
suit the new memory size.
9. A message prompting to restart the system may appear according to the
modified specification. In such cases, restart the system.
