Not enough server storage is available to process this command

[Guest mapi-user]

I am running into an application that does a lot of local file IO activity. I

was able to narrow it to a simple operation that fails consistently.

 

The system is Windows Server 2003 x64 bit edition, with Service Pack 2

installed. When copying several files using Windows Explorer, the copy

operation proceeds for sometime and almost always fails with a file -

ususally over 100MB in size.

 

Cannot copy file.exe: Not enough server storage is available to process this

command

 

I have tweaked registry entry for IRPStacksize (set to 20, 40, 50). Always

the same result. I read somewhere that a few folks installed SP1 and the

problem went away. We are actually using SP2. Any help would be appreciated.

 

Thanks.

I honestly don't know what's causing this, but I wouldn't be surprised to

learn it was insufficient disk space on your system drive.

Charlie,

 

Thanks for your reply. I do not think it is the system drive available space

issue. The C: drive has about 30GB space, and the D: Drive has about 1TB

space.

 

Thanks.

Hello,

The system is running out of a resource, what isn't obvious is which one of

the resources it's running out of.

Paged Pool is certainly a suspect and cause this error message. ( More

common with backup programs but not limited to them)

See the following article which points to the registry setting to change

Paged Pool to see if that help out.

 

304101 Backup program is unsuccessful when you back up a large system volume

http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;304101

 

Also some network settings can generate this error:

 

Try Disabling TCP chimney, RSS and TCPA

 

1. Click Start - Run, Regedit

2. Locate the following registry subkey

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters

 

3. Right-click EnableTCPChimney, and then click Modify.

4. In the Value data box, type 0 , and then click OK.

5. Right-click EnableRSS, and then click Modify.

6. In the Value data box, type 0 , and then click OK.

7. Right-click EnableTCPA, and then click Modify.

8. In the Value data box, type 0 , and then click OK.

9. Exit from the Registry editor

10. Restart the Server.

 

 

Thanks,
