memory settings from default to 4500 MB

  • Hi This is the message which I received when I executed this query

    exec sp_configure 'show advanced options', 1

    go

    reconfigure

    go

    exec sp_configure 'max server memory', 4500

    go

    reconfigure

    Configuration option 'max server memory (MB)' changed from 2147483647 to 4500. Run the RECONFIGURE statement to install.

    what is this Run the RECONFIGURE statement to install? do I need to execute reconfigure again or what ?

    please let me know.

  • From MSDN:-

    Specifies that if the configuration setting does not require a server stop and restart, the currently running value should be updated.

    You've already run RECONFIGURE so don't worry. Best way to check is to right click your instance in SSMS (at the top), go to Properties, then Memory and then you can see if your updated value is there in Maximum Server Memory (in MB)

  • Thank a lot for your reply.

  • Since you already ran reconfigure, you shouldn't need to worry about that message. Think of it as a reminder that is displayed every time you change a config.

    Just be sure to verify the setting is in effect.

  • If you want to verify the current setting, run this statement:

    EXEC sp_configure 'max server memory'
