All,
I've hit a road block. I'm trying to set Windows 2008 (x64) to use
a page file on the D: drive. However, it just does not seem to want to
comply.
First, I used the built in GUI tools. I set the C: drive to 800-1024,
and the D: drive to 34000. I committed my settings with "Set" and
rebooted.
After reboot, C: was set to 800, but nothing was changed on D:.
I verified in the registry, and the settings are accurate. (Also in the
GUI still)
I've check drive permissions, but they seem to be in order.
So, I removed the page file on D: and I attempted to set it with wmic:
wmic.exe pagefileset create name="D:\pagefile.sys"
wmic pagefileset where name="D:\\pagefile.sys" set
InitialSize=17000,MaximumSize=17000
Both commands came back successful. I rebooted. Nothing on D:, but the
GUI and registry setting complement each other.
I removed the page file from C: and tried to set it on D: only. After
rebooting windows reports that a temporary page file was created. Sure
enough. On my C: drive is a page file that is 16G (the equivalent of
physical memory)
I've tried other drives that I attached as well. Same situation.
What is going on here? I appreciate the help.
Thanks,
Jason
