Hi all.


Server -> SBS 2000


I have 600 MB free space on C: drive. All the backups are running just fine.

Could I move the PageFile.sys from C: drive to D:, without any problem?
When I move it from C: to D:, SBS tells me that there will be no information for dumping.

This situation would be temporary, because we are thinking in buying a new server.


Thanks a lot in advance.

Best regards,
Joaquim.

The warning message you get while trying to move the page file from C: to D:
only relates to if/when the server crashes and needs to dump memory to the
hard disk. I don't know of anyone who has actually used this feature so I'm
sure you'll be OK to move to the D: drive. We have a bank of 12 load
balanced 2000 TS servers all with the page file set to D: and have had no
problems what so ever.
