I have SQL servers running 2005, 2008, and 2012. I do have about 64, 128 GB memory in some of them. I have also configured SQL to manage memory and given only 6 GB to the OS.
The question is how should the pagefile be configured? with which formula? I have been using 1.5 * the RAM in the past. if 1.5 * RAM is right, should it be 1.5 * 6 GB (memory allocated to OS) or 1.5 * total memory installed on the box?
and does VM matters?
I have already read this article http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2160852
Thanks!
