Sorry, long weekend... I didn't get a chance for weekend ? of the days! Oh well, here's todays challenge!

Q11. You are the network admin. Your W2K domain controller uses a second hard drive (NTFS dynamic volume) for the paging files. The server has been sluggish lately, you reboot & receive this error:

Limited Virtual Memory

Your system is running without a properly sized paging file. Please use the virtual memory option of the System applet in the Control Panel to create a paging file, or to increase the initial size of your paging file.

Upon checking into this error you find the D: drive is no longer accessible. You suspect the hard drive has failed so you pull the D: drive from another W2K test server that also only used the D: for the paging files. The HD is the same size & file system (NTFS dynamic volume). Upon booting the server after adding the new drive you receive the same error message. What should you do? (Select the Best Answer!)

A. Forget about it, go have a beer. The hard drive works so it should fix itself.

B. From System properties, click Virtual Memory , reset the "Initial Size" and the "Maximum Size" values to the recommended values, and then restart your computer.

C. Import the foreign disk. Then go to the System properties, click Virtual Memory, reset the "Initial Size" and the "Maximum Size" values to the recommended values, and then restart your computer.

D. From System Properties, click the Advanced tab, click Performance Options, click Change, reset the "Initial Size" and the "Maximum Size" values to the recommended values, and then restart your computer.

E. Import the foreign disk. Then go to System Properties, click the Advanced tab, click Performance Options, click Change, reset the "Initial Size" and the "Maximum Size" values to the recommended values, and then restart your computer.

F. Simply import the foreign disk. Then reboot the server.

Good Luck!

I pick 'D'. It's a hard drive you don't have to "import" it... Windows will recongize it at boot time.

E for me. As it came from another computer, you have to import it via DM, and then recheck your VM config.

Once again I quote Windows 2000 Server Operations Guide.

"You can move basic and dynamic disks from one computer to another. For both basic and dynamic disks, you need to physically move the disk from the computer, and then either restart the computer or use the Rescan Disks command on the Action menu in Disk Management."
