Memory Settings
The amount of memory that is allocated to the software is taken during application startup. If the configured amount is greater than the amount that is available on the host computer, the application will fail to start. Please see the following FAQ if you are experiencing this issue: https://support.quest.com
Total Memory Detected - This is the total amount of system memory that is available on the host computer.
|
|
NOTE: If you are running the 32-bit version of Essentials and have greater than 4GB of total memory on the host computer, the tool will display 4095M + due to system-provided limitations in 32-bit architecture. |
Total Memory Usage - This is the percentage of allocated memory that is currently being used by the application.
Configured Memory - Select the new amount of memory that you wish to allocate to Essentials and click Apply.
After the memory value is modified, the software will need to be restarted so please do not make adjustments if any operations are currently running.
|
|
NOTE: if the 32-bit edition is installed, you will receive a notification on the Memory Management page, telling you to upgrade to 64-bit edition to fully utilize your memory resources. |
