F-4 Installing Windows Server 2003
About the System Partition Size
The system partition size can be calculated from the following formula.
Size necessary to install the system + Paging File Size + Dump File Size
+ Application Size
Size necessary to install the system = 3500MB (Windows Server 2003 R2)
= 3500MB (Windows Server 2003 with Service Pack 1)
= 3500MB (Windows Server 2003 R2 with Service Pack 2)
= 5300MB (Windows Server 2003 R2 + Service Pack 2)
= 5300MB (Windows Server 2003 with Service Pack 1 + Service Pack 2)
Paging File Size (Recommended) = Mounted Memory Size * 1.5
Dump file Size = Mounted Memory Size + 12MB
Application Size = Required Size
IMPORTANT:
„
The above-mentioned paging file size is recommended for collecting debug information
(memory dump). The paging file with initial size large enough to store the dump file in the
boot drive is required.
Correct debug information might not be able to be collected due to virtual memory shortage
when the paging file is insufficient, so set an enough size of the paging file with the entire
system.
„
The maximum paging file size which can be set on one partition is 4095MB. If the above
paging file size exceeds 4095MB, specify 4095MB for the paging file size.
„
The maximum dump file size for the system with more than 2GB memory mounted is
' 12MB'.
„
If you install any application program or the like, add necessary space to the partition to install
these programs.
For example, if the mounted memory size is 512MB, the partition size will be calculated by the above formula as follows:
(512MB * 1.5) + (512MB + 12MB) + Application Size
= Application Size
Dividing into the partition of the recommended size into multiple disks as written below will solve problem that it cannot be
reserved in one disk.
1.
Set the "Size required for instal Paging file size".
2.
See Chapter 5 and set that debugging information (equivalent to the dump file size) is to be written to a separate disk.
(If the disk does not have enough free space to enable the dump file size to be written, then after installing the system
using the "Size required for instal Paging file size", install an additional new disk.)
