- Don,
-
- AUTOGEN can determine good pagefile sizes. Run it so it just produces a report
- and doesn't make any changes. It's best to put PAGEFILE=0 and SWAPFILE=0 in
- your MODPARAMS.DAT so you maintain control of them.
-
- Do @SYS$UPDATE:AUTOGEN SAVPARAMS TESTFILES and look at
- SYS$SYSTEM:AGEN$PARAMS.REPORT.
-
- Your pagefiles should go on disks that aren't heavily used. Don't make lots of
- little pagefiles, but a few hefty ones on your least-used disks should be fine.
