ex2ksp2, two servers, "in" ex5.5 site with 4 5.5 servers Reader's digest version:
October - completed migration of 5000 users to Ex2k on sp2. Users using OWA (extremely low end users) with no apparent issues. Mid-November-ish - ServerB started getting IS terminating unexpectedly, which resolved itself (i.e. dissapeared) in about 9 days. After IS stopped terminating unexpectedly, OWA having slowdowns (ie. takes 30-200 seconds to open the page). Other e2k server (serverA) with very few users not having the problem. Moved all the users to that server, it started having the problem. Rebuilt serverB completely (OS and all), started moving users to it - fine for a couple days, then started having slowdowns again. So, to date: NetMon - looks fine, no help Packet sniffer - network is fine (on fiber) Perf/SysMon - looks fine, no help Rebuild server from scratch - didn't help Remove all 3rd party software (or just don't load it) - didn't help help? p.s. Yes I've called MS.
