Creating an Additional Page File

When additional memory or software applications are installed on the server, errors
can occur in the event log, indicating that the C drive is nearing capacity. To solve
this problem, you can either move applications located on the C drive to another
partition or create a page file. Creating the page file on a separate partition to support
the amount of memory in the server is the most efficient solution. After an additional
page file has been created, set the page file on the boot partition to one times the
amount of memory. For additional information on creating page files, refer to
the “Paging File” section of the Help file, which can be accessed by clicking
Start>Help.

Installing Tape Drives

If a tape drive was purchased for the server, support for the tape drive might require
manual installation. To install the tape device:

1. Right-click My Computer>Manage.

2. Select Device Manager from the left side of the Computer Management screen.

This action displays all of the devices on the right side of the screen.

IMPORTANT: The tape drive is listed in the Other Devices category under
the ? (question mark) icon, which indicates an unknown device, until the correct driver
is installed.

3. Right-click the tape device, then select Properties.

4. Select the Driver tab, and then click Update Driver. The Update Device Driver

Wizard begins.

5. Click Next to continue.

6. Select Search for a suitable driver for my device>Next.

7. Select Specify a location, and deselect all other options. Click Next.
