Windows Server How ToYour Windows Server Knowledge Base

Have you ever encountered error when using Distributed File System on your Windows server 2003 that states – your staging file is full?

I`ll show you how to fix that.

By default staging file limit is set to 675840Kb.

To change that open registry editor by typing regedit and navigate to:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Ntfrs\Parameters

Here you will see Binary value named “Staging Space limit in KB“.

Open it, change base to Decimal and enter your new value.

Press “OK”

Thats it!
