"About NTFS File System and Windows Registry Permissions" in Oracle Database Platform Guide for Microsoft Windows Itanium (64-Bit)To ensure that the system meets these requirements, follow these steps:
Determine the physical RAM size. For a computer using Windows Server 2003, for example, double-click System in the Windows Control Panel and select the General tab. If the size of the physical RAM installed in the system is less than the required size, then you must install more memory before continuing.
Determine the size of the configured virtual memory (also known as paging file size). For a computer using Windows Server 2003, for example, open System in the Control Panel, select the Advanced tab, and click Settings in the Performance section. Then select the Advanced tab. The virtual memory is listed in the Virtual Memory section.
If necessary, see your operating system documentation for information about how to configure additional virtual memory.
Determine the amount of free disk space on the system. For a computer using Windows Server 2003, for example, double-click My Computer, right-click the drive where the Oracle software is to be installed, and select Properties.
Determine the amount of disk space available in the temp
directory. This is equivalent to the total amount of free disk space, minus what is needed for the Oracle software to be installed.
If there is less than 125 MB of disk space available in the temp
directory, then first delete all unnecessary files. If the temp disk space is still less than 125 MB, then set the TEMP
or TMP
environment variable to point to a different hard drive. For a computer using Windows Server 2003, for example, double-click System in the Control Panel, select the Advanced tab, and click Environment Variables.
Table 3 lists the software requirements for Oracle Database.
