Product Line
Andover Continuum
Environment
- Continuum v2.0 SP1
- A Windows 32-bit Operating System
Cause
Beginning with the Andover Continuum 2.0 SP1 Release, Continuum applications now take advantage of the upper memory address space that is available natively on 64-bit Operating Systems (OSs). In order to access these memory addresses on 32-bit OSs, you must reconfigure your 32-bit OS to support applications that are Large Address Aware (LAA).
Resolution
Enabled Large Address Aware (LAA). A Windows batch file is included as part of the Continuum 2.0 SP1 release that allows you to reconfigure your 32-bit OS to support applications that are LAA. You will need to ensure that Windows Firewall and Windows Defender are turned off and then run the "laa_update.bat" batch file as an administrator from the installation CD or zip folder.
See page 19 of the Cyberstation v2.0 SP1 Installation Guide for further details.
