5. Setting Up Windows Server 2008 R2
Express5800/R120f-1M, R120f-2M Installation Guide (Windows)
Chapter 1 Installing Windows
Specify a drive other than the system drive for "Dedicated Dump File".
Create the registry shown below by using the Registry Editor and specify the name of
Dedicated Dump File.
<When specifying the file named "dedicateddumpfile.sys" in drive D>
Note the following when specifying Dedicated Dump File:
• Pay strict attention to edit the registry.
• The setting is applied after restarting the system.
• Specify a drive that has free space of "installed memory size + 300 MB" or more.
• Dedicated Dump File cannot be placed in dynamic volumes.
• To collect memory dump by using Dedicated Dump File, a paging file is required in
any drive.
• Dedicated Dump File is only used for collecting memory dump, and is not used as
virtual memory. Specify the paging file size so that sufficient virtual memory can be
allocated in the entire system.
Key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM
\CurrentControlSet\Control\CrashControl
Name: DedicatedDumpFile
Type: REG_SZ
Data: D:\dedicateddumpfile.sys
Example of incorrect setting 1
C: Paging file whose size is smaller than the installed memory size
D: Paging file whose size is "installed memory size + 300 MB" or more
→
The paging file in drive C is used for collecting memory dump, but
collection may fail because the size of the paging file is smaller than the
installed memory size.
Example of incorrect setting 2
C: Paging file whose size is "installed memory size
0.5"
D: Paging file whose size is "installed memory size
0.5"
E: Paging file whose size is 300 MB
→ The total paging file size in all drives is "installed memory size + 300 MB",
but collection may fail because only the paging file in drive C is used for
collecting memory dump.
Example of incorrect setting 3
C: No paging file exists
D: Paging file whose size is "installed memory size + 300 MB" or more
(in dynamic volume)
→ Paging files in a dynamic volume cannot be used for collecting memory
dump. Thus, collecting memory dump fails.
