The system partition size can be calculated by using the following formula.
Size required to install the OS + paging file size + dump file size + application size
Full installations
Size required to install the OS = 11,600 MB
(Windows Server 2008)
= 12,300 MB
(Windows Server 2008 with Service Pack 2)
= 16,720 MB
(Windows Server 2008 + Service Pack 2)
Paging file size (recommended) = installed memory size × 1.5
Dump file size = installed memory size + 300 MB
Application size = as required by the application
Server Core installations
Size required to install the OS = 4,100 MB
(Windows Server 2008)
= 12,300 MB
(Windows Server 2008 with Service Pack 2)
= 9,300 MB
(Windows Server 2008 + Service Pack 2)
Paging file size (recommended) = installed memory size × 1.5
Dump file size = installed memory size + 300 MB
Application size = as required by the application
For example, if the installed memory size is 1 GB (1,024 MB) and Full installation is
selected, the partition size is calculated as follows:
11,600 MB + (1,024 MB × 1.5) + 1,024 MB + 300 MB + application size = 14,460
MB + application size
Note
•
The above paging file sizes are recommended for collecting debug
information (dump file). The initial size of the boot volume paging file must be
large enough to store dump files. Make sure you set a sufficient paging file
size. If the paging file is insufficient, there will be a virtual memory shortage
that may result in an inability to collect correct debug information.
• Regardless of the sizes of internal memory and write debug information, the
maximum size of the dump file is "size of internal memory + 300 MB".
• When installing other applications or other items, add the amount of space
needed by the application to the partition.
If the partition size for installing the system is smaller than the size required for
installation + paging file size, expand the partition size or add another disk. If your
system does not have a sufficient dump file size, divide the required file space into
multiple disks by performing the following steps.
1. Set the system partition size to a size sufficient to install the OS and paging file.
2. Write the debug information of the dump file onto another disk by referring to
Chapter 1 (7. Setup for Solving Problems).
If there is not enough disk space to write the debug information, set the partition
size to a size sufficient to install the OS and paging file, and then add another disk
for the dump file.
