About the System Partition Size

The minimum size for the partition where the system is to be installed can be calculated
from the following formula.
Size necessary to install the system + Paging File Size + Dump File Size
Size necessary to install the system
Paging File Size (Recommended)= Mounted Memory Size × 1.5
Dump file Size= Mounted Memory Size + 12 MB
Application size = Required size
■
The above-mentioned paging file size is recommended for
collecting debug information (memory dump). A paging file
with an initial size large enough to store the dump file in the
boot drive is required.
It may be impossible to collect correct debugging information
due to a virtual memory shortage if the paging file is insuffi-
cient, so we recommend you set a paging file large enough
for the entire system.
■
The maximum paging file size which can be set on one parti-
tion is 4095 MB. If the above paging file size exceeds
4095 MB, specify 4095 MB for the paging file size.
■
The maximum dump file size for the system with more than
2 GB memory mounted is '2048 MB + 12 MB'.
■
If you install any application program or the like, add neces-
sary space to the partition to install these programs.
For example, if the mounted memory size is 512 MB, the minimally required partition
size will be calculated by the above formula as follows:
3500 MB + (512 MB * 1.5) + (512 MB + 12 MB) + Application size= 4792 MB +
Application size
If the required partition size is larger than the size of a hard disk drive, we recommend
you split the file across several disks.
= 3500 MB (Windows Server 2003 R2)
= 3500 MB (Windows Server 2003 with Service Pack 1)
= 3500 MB (Windows Server 2003 R2 with Service Pack 2)
= 5300 MB (Windows Server 2003 R2 + Service Pack 2)
= 5300 MB (Windows Server 2003 R2 with Service Pack 1
+ Service Pack 2)
