Enhanced Support for Virtual Memory Allocation on Windows x86 and x64 Operating Systems

This release of CA ARCserve Backup includes support for Large Address Aware functionality on Windows x86 and x64 operating systems. As a Large Address Aware capable application, CA ARCserve Backup can access up to 3 GB of virtual memory on Windows x86 operating systems and 4 GB of virtual memory on Windows x64 operating systems.

On Windows x86 operating systems, you must modify the accessible memory switch. If you install the CA ARCserve Backup server component on a computer that is running an x86 version of Windows, this enhancement helps to improve the overall performance of the CA ARCserve Backup Tape Engine. On Windows x64 operating systems, no configuration is required.
