I've got 100 in my office (IS = 40 Gigs) and it runs like a top with 1GB of RAM. The server came with 2GB, but I had to take it out to get rid of the 9582 errors.... There is no way to force Exchange VM to use the extra memory correctly under Win2000 Server. You can upgrade to Windows 2000 Advanced Server and still keep the 2GB ram.

Any ideas? Removing 1GB of RAM doesn't seem like a viable option to me. John -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Gerod Serafin Sent: Thursday, September 16, 2004 9:30 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: VM Fragmentation Issue There have been a ton of fixes in the most recent service pack for Exchange 2000 so please make sure that you are running that. There are even more fixes in Exchange 2003 so if you have the opportunity to go there someday, it will help. Also, make sure that you don't have the /3GB switch enabled on your boot.ini unless you have Windows 2000 Advanced Server. http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=KB;EN-US;266096 Says: "Note Do not add the /3GB switch if you are running Windows 2000 Server, Microsoft Small Business Server 2000, or Microsoft BackOffice Server 2000. If the /3GB switch has been added to the Boot.ini file on these operating systems, it must be removed because it can contribute to virtual memory fragmentation on these systems. This switch is designed for use only with Windows 2000 Advanced Server and later." -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, September 16, 2004 12:19 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: VM Fragmentation Issue Exchange 2000 Standard Windows 2000 Server 2GB RAM priv db: 10.9GB c: 3.15GB/15GB free d: 17GB/40GB free (Exchange db here) e: 27GB/48GB free I took over this system about 1.5 months ago. 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.
