Check binding order for exchange in the registry. Make sure rpc is first. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Matthew Joyce Sent: Sunday, February 08, 2004 8:40 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: Exch 2003 slowdowns Importance: High
Hi, More problems... Today, many of our users are getting the "requesting data from Microsoft exchange 2003 server" dialog. Why is this ? Exchange 2003 2.4Ghz Xeon, 1gb Ram, 100GB raid. Only 125 users, 100mb max mailbox size. Not much in the way of public folders. GFI Mail Essentials GFI Mail Security Looking at task manager... Store 30-45% GFIScan 15-20% Free 30-50% These would normally be very low, every thing <5% with occasional peak above 10%. I have increased some of the diag logging for IS but nothing is showing up in the event log. This morning I thought I would try restarting Store, but it would not shutdown. (perhaps I was impatient) I ended up restarting the server. MTA and Store did not auto start, I had to manually start them after about 5 mins after the server came back up. It happened again later on, I have perfmon watching a few counters... Nothing or very little in the queues, normal CPU usage, normal disk usage, normal RPC usage, then bam, CPU goes up to previously mentioned levels and RPC Averaged Latency just keep climbing. Keeps climbing (14000 before last reboot.) No one can connect with Outlook and eventually I can't Remote Desktop the machine, and I have reboot the server. I can never shutdown Store.exe when this happened, so I'm thinking that it is waiting for some other process to achieve something or to respond to Stores request and it just never happens. Messages do get processed though, the queues don't really start piling up. any ideas ? any other info I can get to help diagnose this problem. I'm getting grumbles from management, not surprisingly, Monday morning with no email etc. Matt Children's Cancer Institute Australia http://www.ccia.org.au -- _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Web Interface: http://intm-dl.sparklist.com/cgi-bin/lyris.pl?enter=exchange&text_mode=&; lang=english To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe via postal mail, please contact us at: Jupitermedia Corp.
