~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Log Name: System Source: Microsoft-Windows-Resource-Exhaustion-Detector Date: 26-10-2018 23:10:22 Event ID: 2004 Task Category: Resource Exhaustion Diagnosis Events Level: Warning Keywords: Events related to exhaustion of system commit limit (virtual memory). User: SYSTEM Computer: <servername> Description: Windows successfully diagnosed a low virtual memory condition. The following programs consumed the most virtual memory: sqlservr.exe (1864) consumed 42609135616 bytes, svchost.exe (2112) consumed 2080235520 bytes, and ccSvcHst.exe (4664) consumed 1545547776 bytes.
Resolution
From the event log, note the services that consume the maximum virtual memory and then perform the housekeeping of the virtual memory.
If the first step fails, increase the virtual memory.
Following are the steps to increase the Virtual Memory in Windows:
Open System Properties:
Navigate to Performance Settings:
Adjust Virtual Memory:
Apply and Restart:
After making your changes, click OK to close each window.
You will be prompted to restart your computer for the changes to take effect. Save any open work and restart your computer.
Your virtual memory settings will be updated after the restart.
