I change the AWE configuration (SQL 2008) with this script:

sp_configure 'show advanced options', 1
RECONFIGURE
GO
sp_configure 'awe enabled', 1
RECONFIGURE
GO
sp_configure 'max server memory', 5120
RECONFIGURE
GO

But i check Facets View->Server Configuration->AweEnabled and i have this value:

"value of property aweenabled is not in a committed state".

I reboot the server many times but i have the same message.

Any suggestion?

Are you in a 64-bit environment? If so, AWE Enabled is a no-op.

Since your servers are x64, don't bother changing awe and definitely don't worry about what server configuration is showing for it.
