Gigabyte RAM Tuning

Although the Configuration Change Console Server cannot be configured for more than about 1.5 GB due to a limit in the Java JVM, if you are running multiple applications on the same server, it may be necessary to tune your Windows installation to allow for more memory to be used for other processes.

Microsoft Windows 2000 Advanced (and Data) Server, and Microsoft Windows Server 2003 feature a method of increasing the available virtual memory within the operating system to 4 GB, referred to as 4 Gigabyte RAM (3GT/4GT) Tuning. Of the 4 GB allocated through 3GT/4GT tuning, 3 GB are set aside for general program use, and 1 GB reserved for use by the operating system.

Note:

4 gigabyte RAM tuning is not fully supported in Windows 2000 Professional, and Windows 2000 server.

To enable 4 Gigabyte RAM tuning, follow these steps:

Open a command window by selecting Start --> Run from the Start menu and entering cmd.
Navigate to the root directory of the boot drive for your computer (most often C:\). At the command prompt enter:

edit boot.ini
Within the file, locate the following line under the [Operating Systems] section:

multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINNT="Microsoft Windows Server"

Where Microsoft Windows Server is the directory of your Microsoft installation.
At the very end of the line, add the following switch:

/3GB
Save the file and exit. You will need to restart your computer before the changes take effect.
