Question : Out of resources error when moving lots of files

We have servers that recieve "out of resources" errors when moving lots of files.  For example if i use robocopy to move thoushands of files between hard drives, it will eventually fail with that error.  I get the error on multiple Windows 2003 servers and the amount of RAM doesn't matter.   Are there any tweaks that i should be applying that i can't find?   Any help is appreciated.

Answer : Out of resources error when moving lots of files

This is due to low kernel memory.

If you have the /3gb switch in boot.ini,  this can cause it.
Make sure you have your antivirus engine fully up to date.

Additionally you might do these registry tweaks and reboot your server to allow for more paged pool kernel memory (used for file caching heavily).
