PageFile.Sys Size and Virtual Memory Size

  • On one of my server the output of sys.dm_os_memory is as below

    total_physical_memory_kb:75486092

    available_physical_memory_kb:878376

    total_page_file_kb:82229572

    availabel_page_file_kb:7284988

    At windows (Computer-> properties->advanced->VM-> it is set to be on D: and E:)

    The files Pagefile.sys on D: is 2.47 gb and E: is 2.44 GB (total: 4.88 gb - 5117050 KB)

    The value coming up in the DMV is way higher. How do we actually need to interpret it? How the filesize of 4.88 gb is showing up a virtual memory of around 78 gb. Please clarity on it and help me to understand it. Thanks
