Problem:

When you try to copy a large file from a Windows server share you get this error message.

Not enough server storage is available to process this command. error.

Copying small files (less than 100MB) seems to work ok.  Rebooting the server solves the problem for a few days but it happens again.

Solution:

1. Click Start, click Run, type “regedit”, and then click OK.
2. Locate and then click the following registry subkey:
   HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEMCurrentControlSetServicesLanmanServerParameters
3. Click Edit, point to New, and then click DWORD Value.
4. Type “IRPStackSize”, and then press ENTER to name the value.Note Type IRPStackSize exactly as it is displayed. This is case sensitive.
5. Click Edit, and then click Modify.
6. In the Data Value box, type 30 or any value max of 50, and then click OK.
7. Restart the Server service or restart the machine.
