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!
Are you perchance using FAT32 on the systems that show this symptom?
