The problem is that you have 2GB of RAM on a Windows 2000 Server. You cannot use the /3GB boot switch on Windows 2000 Server (Standard), but CAN use it with Advanced and Data Center editions. Windows 2003 Server does support the /3GB switch, though.
Upgrade to 2003 Server or remove 1 GB of ram and the 9582 errors should go away.

Back then I noticed this event in the log and noticed the virtual memory was low and only on c: drive. So I increased c: and added some one d: and e: bringing the total VM to 5.5GB. After restarting the system the memory usage history went from 50% down to 20%. Typically the store.exe runs at 1GB memory usage as well. So the performance was up and the event didn't come back. That was up until a few days ago. From what I understand, the fragmented vm can prevent Exchange from properly dismounting the information store so I want this corrected but my fix only seemed to delay the fragmentation. Any tips or help would be appreciated. Event 9582: The virtual memory necessary to run your Exchange server is fragmented in such a way that performance may be affected. It is highly recommended that you restart all Exchange services to correct this issue. John PS. I checked under the server and didn't find any gorbs or gobs :P _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Web Interface: http://intm-dl.sparklist.com/cgi-bin/lyris.pl?enter=exchange&text_mode=&lang =english To unsubscribe send a blank email to %%email.unsub%% Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe via postal mail, please contact us at: Jupitermedia Corp.
