Hi everyone.<br />
<br />
for a week now, I have had an issue with our SQL server not using the full amount of free space on the server.<br />
<br />
We have a Windows Server 2003 Standard with 4gb on hyper-v.<br />
<br />
I have allocated 3gb to SQL to use for itself in max allowance, however, SQL is only using 1733644K of memory. Leaving 2GB floating there.<br />
<br />
I would not mind, but the server is slowly getting very slow and we have to restart the server every night to clear it.<br />
<br />
Please, Please can anyone assist.<br />
<br />
Thank you in advance<br />
Baker
