Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] Split pagefile
Hi,
Best practice used to be to put the pagefile on a
different BUS than the OS. The idea is that you can
read/write to both the OS and the PF at the same time. We
always put the entire PF on a separate bus/drive in it's own
partition. That way you have the added speed of a bus apart
from the OS bus and a contiguous PF. We never bothered with a
C: swapfile because we could never afford to send the dump to
M$ for decryption. :-}

Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] Split pagefile
Hi,
I have an answer and a question about the same.
Most of my servers have 2 partition, one for the OS and the
other for data, I always put the pagefile in the data
partition, so yes, you can have the have the whole thing in a
different partition or hard drive.
Actually, Linux system always create a swap partition just
for that purpose, so I wonder if it would be more efficient
to always create a partition just for the pagefile... Anyone knows?

Sorry for the reply to my own post, but this article:
http://www.windowsnetworking.com/kbase/WindowsTips/Windows2003
/AdminTips
/Miscellaneous/EnhancePerformancebyMovingthePagefile.html
says I can move the whole thing to a different partition.
I'll leave a meg on the C drive just for the dumpfile, which
we limit to 64K, in case the system crashes and I can
actually figure out how to read the dumpfile.
But, really, is it OK to leave absolutely NO pagefile on C:/?
We normally leave at least 200Mb on the C: partition when we
move the rest to a different drive.

Subject: Split pagefile
Colleagues,
Is there a best practice for splitting the pagefile on
Exchange 2003
across multiple drives? My C drive is up to nearly 9GB
used out of
10GB, and I'd like to move off most of the 3GB pagefile
to maybe the
database drive. We have only 500 users on that system, so
performance shouldn't
be too much of an issue.
Thanks in advance, folks.
