I have a Novell 3.12 on a Pentium 133 with 32M RAM Memory. Actualy, after mounting SYS volume (1Gb), when I try to mount my VOL1 (1.5Gb) I receive this error message "Insuficient Memory to Mount Volume". I have used the SET REGISTER MEMORY 1000000 TO 1000000 and I don't knoe if is it correct. thank you

Type 'MEMORY' at the Server console. if the current servermemory is 16 MBytes then you can use the "Register Memory" statement to fix your problem. Here is the currect syntax: Register Memory 1000000 1000000 Type "Memory" again. The total Memory should be 32 MBytes now. To make this fix permanent (atfer reboot etc) you have to write the line (Register Memory 1000000 1000000) into server's startup.ncf.

How to register memory in Netware 3.x and 4.x (Last modified: 12OCT1999) This document (10018941) is provided subject to the disclaimer at the end of this document.

If a server has more than 16MB of RAM and a disk adapter that uses 16 and 24 bit DMA or bus-mastering, the server startup files will need to be modified as follows. NetWare 3.1x: STARTUP.NCF Set auto register memory above 16 megabytes=off Set reserved buffers below 16 meg=200 (optional, device dependent) etc... AUTOEXEC.NCF File server name Ipx internal net Register memory 1000000 Load Mount all etc... Note: For the 3.1x solution the AUTOEXEC.NCF must be copied to the server boot directory and the copy residing in the SYS:SYSTEM directory should be renamed. NetWare 4.01 STARTUP.NCF Set auto register memory above 16 megabytes=off Set reserved buffers below 16 meg=200 (optional, device dependent) Load PM401 Load Memfrgfx 1000000 (replaces REGISTER MEMORY) Load etc... NetWare 4.02 STARTUP.NCF Set auto register memory above 16 megabytes=off Set reserved buffers below 16 meg=200 (optional, device dependent) Register memory 1000000 Load etc... NetWare 4.1 and above: The register memory statement works in 4.1 as described in 4.02 above, however, ALWAYS AUTO REGISTER MEMORY IN NETWARE 4.1 and above. This is the only way to assure that you will not cause memory segmentation problems. If you are unable to successfully auto register memory, then call your hardware vendor. You will need to get a system board, BIOS upgrade, that allows the auto register memory functionality to work, or you may need to go with a different system board. Also, be certain that the current OS patches are loaded and that the current LOADER.exe has been applied to SERVER.exe. The number to use in the place of is determined by taking the number of megabytes above 16MB and converting it to hex. Below is a chart of common numbers converted to hex Total Hex number to use 20 400000 (20MB - 16MB = 4 MB = 4194304 bytes = 400000 in hex) 24 800000 28 C00000 32 1000000 40 1800000 An easy way to calculate the number in hex is to take the number of Megs above 16, convert that to hex and add 5 zeros on the end. Example a server with 64 MB total RAM: 64 - 16 = 48. 48 in hex is 30. The entry in the AUTOEXEC.NCF would be REGISTER MEMORY 1000000 3000000 More information on memory segmentation and detail to implement memory registration is available in TID 2908018. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Please select if this document solved your problem. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Document Title: How to register memory in Netware 3.x and 4.x Document ID: 10018941 Solution ID: 1.0.34405938.2360957 Creation Date: 12OCT1999 Modified Date: 12OCT1999 Novell Product Class: NetWare Novell Product and Version: NetWare 4.11 NetWare 5 Novell Clients -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- DISCLAIMER The Origin of this information may be internal or external to Novell.
