Hello there,
We have a Windows 2012 server running SQL with 192GB RAM. Windows updates were applied last Saturday.
We have been monitoring C:\ drive space and noticed that pagefile.sys is full. Size is set up to 25GB. We did some research and enabled the local policy to clear page file at shut down but the pagefile.sys size hasn't change after shut down. After reboot it remains same size.
Last week pagefile.sys size was around 1.6GB. We would like to find what is using pagefile space, that wasn't happening before.
We can move it to another drive, but if we don't find what is causing this is going to be full again.
In a daily basis around 100GB of RAM are free FYI.
We need help, please advise
Thanks
