Refresh my memory please, it seems to be fragmented like my Exchange server's. /userva switch?

On Windows 2003 you should additionally throw the /userva switch on the same machines you throw the /3gb. It would be nice if Microsoft's documentation and kb articles could be a little more complimentary, but there it is anyway. If you want more information about memory tuning, there's a nice section titled "Appendix B, Optimizing Memory Usage" in the Planning an Exchange Server 2003 Messaging System whitepaper. -Al -----Original Message----- From: Salandra, Justin A.

This is on a Windows 2003 Server running Exchange 2003, so needless to say it is very important that it stays running. The server rebooted, but in doing so did not start all of the exchange services, which was very bad... What are your thoughts in how I can prevent this from happening? This server is running with 3gb of physical ram and 4096 of paging, there should be no memory problems. Here is the event log from the server. Event Type: Error Event Source: MSExchangeIS Event Category: Performance Event ID: 9582 Date: 11/16/2003 Time: 3:27:12 AM User: N/A Description: The virtual memory necessary to run your Exchange server is fragmented in such a way that normal operation may begin to fail. It is highly recommended that you restart all Exchange services to correct this issue. For more information, click http://www.microsoft.com/contentredirect.asp. Any thoughts or suggestions?
