5-6 Installing the Operating System with Express SetupAbout the System Partition SizeWhen the system is Windows Server 2008 32-bit (x86) EditionRequired partition size = size required to install OS + paging file size + dumpfile size + application sizeSize required to install OS = 6,300MB (Full Installation)or= 2,200MB (Server Core Installation)Paging file size (recommended) = Installed memory size x 1.5Dump file size = Installed memory size + 300MBApplication size = Required sizeIMPORTANT: The above-mentioned paging file size is recommended forcollecting debug information (memory dump). The paging filewith initial size large enough to store the dump file in the bootdrive is required.Correct debug information might not be able to be collected due tovirtual memory shortage when the paging file is insufficient, so setan enough size of the paging file with the entire system. The maximum paging file size which can be set on one partition is4095MB. If the above paging file size exceeds 4095MB, specify4095MB for the paging file size. The maximum dump file size for the system with more than 2GBmemory mounted is '2048MB + 300MB'. If you install any application program or the like, add necessaryspace to the partition to install these programs.Example:The partition size required for a system with an installed memory size of 512 MB and a fullinstallation of the operating system:6,300MB + (512MB x 1.5) + 512MB + 300MB + application size= 7,880MB + application size.If the partition where the operating system is installed is smaller than that required to install the OSand paging file, expand the partition size or utilize a larger disk. If your system does not have asufficient dump file size, divide the required file space into multiple disks by performing the stepsbelow:1. Set the partition size to a size sufficient to install the OS and paging file.2. See "Setting for Solving Problems" to write the debug information of the dump file on toanother disk.If there is not enough disk space to write the debug information, add another disk for the dump file.
