I've built about 20 Windows Server 2003 Enterprise w/SP1 servers, and,
some
using CD1 of the R2 version (basically, the same thing). I've used
regular
computers as well as servers for the hardware platform.
I've noticed that, on some machines, you are limited to a 4096 MB Paging
File (on some, only 4095), but, on others, you can go as large as you want
(I've created a 24 GB Paging File, but, it was in two non-contiguous
segments). Typically, we have 4-8 GB RAM, so, I would want to create a
6-16
GB Paging File.
Question is, WHAT is causing the limitation? I have a Dell computer and a
Dell server that both use the same SATA drive, but, the server CAN go over
4
GB, and the computer can't. I also have some servers, with SCSI drives
that
can't, and, others, with the same SCSI drives that can.
Is there something in the Registry that I can hack to make this work? Is
it
hardware, drive electronics, BIOS?
Thanks!
