Pagefile.sys size is very large
Hello Friends,
i am using window server 2008R2 Enterprise as a file server .the C (partition -99.9 GB)drive space drasticly decreased on this server . i check the space on the C drive and came to know which file is consuming huge space its pagefile.sys using 36.00
GB further i checked the paging memory of this server, the virtual memory set for server is 36.00 GB the drive space is only 500 Mb left .so can i set paging memory to in size low and move exisiting 36.00 GB pagine .sys file to another drive .

yes you can always set pagefile to another drive and decrease. You may set the pagefile to another drive and delete the existing one from the c: drive or reduce it if you dont have another partition
