The scenario I was thinking of was this: C:\ --> No paging file defined D:\ --> Paging file defined
D:\ goes buh-by for some reason, however system has a page file defined as being on D:\ Won't that keep the system from booting properly? (I seem to remember having been burned by this a few years back - probably on W2kPro). Jonathan L.

I would think the only reason to keep a page file on the OS partition is if you're concerned with capturing a memory dump. Other than that, as long as your alternate disks are local to the server, and aren't a part of any type of RAID other than RAID1, you should be ok. - Sean On Fri, Oct 22, 2010 at 11:07 AM, Raper, Jonathan - Eagle <jra...@eaglemds.com<mailto:jra...@eaglemds.com>> wrote: Would it make sense to keep a small page file on the root drive so you can at least boot/reboot without concern? (Thinking about if anything were to happen to the drive where the main page file resides and there is no page file available to the system.) Jonathan L.

My exchange 2k3 box has it's exchange apps on C, and database and logs on other drives. The C drive is almost full. One of the things on C that I can move is the system page file. Is there anything special with moving a page file on an exchange server, anything to look out for, or just same as anything else?
