page file usage very high

  • Hi Folks,

    I have a problem.. I tried to put SP2 on a server which failed because I ran out of disk space. So I tried to uninstall an instance and reinstall but the instance would not reinstall. There are live databases on the server. I am now getting complaints that the page file usage is high. But the avialable bytes in memory are high and the disk usage is low. I am on an itanium 2. Where can I look?

  • you've given spots of information there. Did SQL install or not?

    What are the complaints about specifically? What are the people doing?

  • You're trying to uinstall SQL Server while people are connected to it? That might cause a few issues with the uninstall and the people working.

    Like Steve says, a bit more clarity on what specifically is happening would be helpful.
