Hi,

Is there a recommended setting for PagedPoolSize on a Windows 2003 Terminal
Server.

I'm getting an error that states that the "System could not allocate the
required space in a registry log" when writing to the "
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\..." key. From what I have read the registry
size is governed by the PagedPoolSize. Even though the registry size under
Windows 2003 is supposed to be dynamic, and the RegistrySizeLimit key no
longer needs to be set, I think it still has a limit.

From the Windows 2000 world, the registry can not exceed 80% of the
PagedPoolSize. Therefore if PagedPoolSize=128MB, max registry size is 128MB
* .80 = 102MB. Does this still apply to Windows 2003?

Interestingly, I have found that a reboot clears the problem, so I'm unsure
what it is I should be looking for.

The servers in this farm are HP DL360 G4s & DL380 G4s with at least 2GB of
RAM.

Cheers.
