Size of the Partition to be Created
The required minimum size of a partition to install the system can be obtained from the following formula:
Size required for installation + paging file size + dump file size
Size required for installation | = 2,900MB |
Paging file size (recommended) | = size of memory mounted* ⋅ 1.5 |
Dump file size | = size of memory mounted* + 12MB |
IMPORTANT:
The above paging file size is necessary for collecting debug information (memory dump). If a value smaller than the “Recommended” value is set for the initial size of the paging file, correct debug information (memory dump) may not be collected.
The maximum paging file size is 4095MB in a partition. If 1.5 times the size of mounted memory is larger than 4095MB, set the size at 4095MB.
If the size of mounted memory is larger than 2GB, the maximum size of dump file is “2048MB+12MB.”
TIPS: The mounted memory size means the total of memory installed on a single CPU module.
For example, if memory of 512MB is mounted, the required minimum partition size obtained from the above formula is as follows:
2900MB + (512MB ⋅ 1.5) + (512MB +12MB) = 4192MB
TIPS: The minimum partition size you can specify in the ft series setup is 3072MB. The partition size must be 3072MB or larger for automatic installation. Therefore the size smaller than 3072MB cannot be specified.
