IBM Sametime 8.5.2 - Media Server installation

Hello everyone,

I recently had a problem installing the Media Manager (or Media Server, I think that IBM si still confused about how to call it) component of IBM Sametime 8.5.2 on a Windows 2008 R2 server.

In the middle of the installation an error popped up whit the message: "Not enough storage is available to process this command".

My first idea was that I had not enough disk space - but I had like 5 GB available, which I thought it was more than enough.
Then, a small search on Google told me that this message is a Windows message generally related with Virtual Memory problems.
I checked that the server was configured to manage automatically the virtual memory, so my idea was that due to the only 5GB available on disk, Windows didn't get the enough virtual memory space to install Media Server... So, I just made more space on the disk (until I had 20GB available) and restarted the Windows server.

After that I just deleted the profile folder that the failed installation created and I was then able to successfully install Sametime Media Server!!!

Regards
