Chapter 1 Installing Operating System
The following partition sizes are recommended.
32,768MB (32GB)
or more
*1 GB = 1,024 MB
Note
•
The above paging file size is recommended for collecting debug information (dump
file). The initial size of the Windows partition paging file must be large enough to
store dump files.
Make sure you set a sufficient paging file size. If the paging file is insufficient, there
will be a virtual memory shortage that may result in an inability to collect correct
debug information.
•
Regardless of the sizes of installed memory and write debug information, the
maximum size of the dump file is "size of installed 400 MB".
•
When installing other applications or other items, add the amount of space
needed by the application to the partition.
If the partition size for installing Windows is smaller than the recommended size, expand the partition size
or add another hard disk drive.
Important For restrictions on size of drive C specific to this server, refer to
Chapter 1
(3.10 Creating Volume)
.
Tips
When new partition is created, 350MB at the top of hard disk drive is secured
for boot partition.
Example:
If 40,960MB (40GB) is specified for partition size, usable space will be:
40,960MB – 350MB = 40,610MB
Free space
System partition (40,610MB)
Boot partition (350MB)
Boot partition is not recognized by operating system.
