NetWare Server Random Memory extension

Server | random

Go to friend units found that the unit NetWare server memory from 16M to 32M, but performance is not much improved, the server hard drive is still turning, the reason found that its hardware memory aspect although upgraded, but the NetWare server memory settings did not change. NetWare server maximum support 4G of random memory, when the random memory below 16M, NetWare system automatically management, and greater than 16M, the need for random memory expansion, that is, even if the user installed the server has been installed more than 16M of memory, and NetWare can only use 16M memory. There are usually two ways to allow NetWare to use more than 16M:

1. Set up a DOS profile to load the device driver Himem.sys in Config.sys. Take the hard disk start as an example: in the C-packing directory set up Config.sys file, only one line of Device=c:\dos\himem. SYS can.

2. Use register to register memory under the console. Take 32M memory as an example by typing register MEMORY 1000000 1000000 under the console, the first 1000000 being the starting address after 16M, and the next 1000000 is the memory length after 16M, You can type the memory command to detect the success of the registration under the console, and the registration success should display: Total Server memory:32,*** kilobytes. If you want to be effective in the long term, you can write it to AUTOEXEC.NCF, that is, type the load INSTALL under the console, select system Options, and then select Edit AUTOEXEC. NCF File, written to register MEMORY 1000000 1000000, on the previous line of the Load Monitor command line. After you quit the server and restart the server, you will see that the server's buffer parameters are greatly improved.

The following is a table of contrasts: (for reference only, the following values will be loaded.) NLM files are different)

The larger the number of cache in the server, the larger the size of the readable file, server hard disk reading pressure is smaller, it seems to register with register the largest number of cache, of course, the best performance. Operating environment: NETWARE 3.12 Memory 32M
