5-6 Installing the Operating System with Express Setup
About the System Partition Size
The system partition size can be calculated from the following formula.
When the system is Windows Server 2008 64-bit (x64) Edition:
Required partition size = Size required to install OS + paging file size + dump
file size + application size
Size required to install OS = 11,600MB (Full Installation)
or
= 4,100MB (Server Core Installation)
Paging file size (recommended) = Installed memory size x 1.5
Dump file size
= Installed memory size + 300MB
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.
„
Regardless of the size of the mounted memory, or the Write
debugging information (type of memory dump), the maximum size
of the dump file is 'The size of the mounted 300MB'.
„
If you install any application program or the like, add necessary
space to the partition to install these programs.
Example:
The partition size required for a system with an installed memory size of 512 MB and a full
installation of the operating system:
11,600MB + (512MB x 1.5) + (512MB + 300MB) + application size
= 13,180MB + application size.
If the provided partition size is smaller than that required to install the OS and paging file, expand
the partition size or utilize a larger disk.
If your system does not have a sufficient dump file size, divide the required file space into multiple
disks by performing the steps below:
1.
Set the system partition size to a size sufficient to install the OS and paging file.
2.
See "Setting for Solving Problems" to write the debug information of the dump file on to
another disk.
If there is not enough disk space to write the debug information, add another disk for the dump file.
