We are having problems with a Windows 2003 Server. It is registering a very large quantity of Pages / Sec. On average it is paging at a rate of 650 per second, peaking up to almost 10,000.<br />
<br />
The server is being used as only a file server.<br />
<br />
The server has 1gb of ram, of which 400mb is free, there is a page file on the c drive which is 95% free.<br />
<br />
i have checked for disk bottle necks, and i can find none.<br />
<br />
why is this server paging so much when there is plenty of space in RAM?

High Amount Of Pages / Sec

Windows Server 2003 was based on Windows XP and was released in four editions: Web, Standard, Enterprise and Datacenter. It also had derivative versions for clusters, storage and Microsoft’s Small Business Server. Important upgrades included integrating Internet Information Services (IIS), improvements to Active Directory (AD) and Group Policy (GP), and the migration to Automated System Recovery (ASR).
