I have a server with 192 GB of memory, and have installed Windows 2008 R2 server on it. Will this cause any problems since the maximum memory amount for Windows 2008 R2 is 32 GB of memory?

Windows Server 2008 R2 STD support a maximum of 32 GB of memory Windows Server 2008 R2 EE/DCE support a maximum of 1 TB of memory. Thanks

Yes, but if I have more than 32 GB of memory in the server, will it cause any problems with my Windows 2008 R2 server installed on that hardware?

Here are the memory limits of Windows Server 2008 standard or Webserver as its 32 GB is the maximum ram and you say that your server is installed with 192 gb this mean you have might have Windows 2008R2 Enterprise server and it will not casue any issues. Please make it sure you have Ent server installted http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/aa366778(v=vs.85).aspx#physical_memory_limits_windows_server_2008_r2 http://www.arabitpro.com

What I am doing is restoring a server from backup. This server is Windows 2008 R2 standard, but the server that I am restoring to has 192 GB of memory on it. I want to know if this will cause any problems with my OS.

what kind or restore you are doing ? a file server, exchange server or some other server ? How ever it should not casue any problem until and unless if your restoring application are harware independent. http://www.arabitpro.com

if you install a windows 2008 r2 standard on a host with more physical memory, windows will just recognize 32gb but doesnt refuse to install. havent tried a restore in that scenario yet but would guess it behaves just the same

Thank you!
