I ran perf opt set to 500 or fewer mailboxes.

Oh well....... back to the drawing board. Just to recap.... there are now 370 users on a dl 380 - its a 733 Pentium III with 500 megs of ram. NT4.0 SP6a Exchange 5.5 sp4. Half of them have been moved over from another server on to this one. Blown away Outlook profiles and recreated them. Done everything but take the old server out of the site as I may move them back to that server when I get it repaired. Ran Perf Opt with no effect. 30% to MAXed out on the Store CPU usage. This is a 100mb switched network. Users experience an Outlook not responding in the task manger when they send or receive meeting requests or are working in Calendar. Email functionality seems to be fine. Any more ideas folks? -----Original Message----- From: Bob Falkenberg Sent: Wednesday, March 20, 2002 2:21 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: performance issues Perfmon using the standard Exchange CPU monitor stuff from another machine not the server itself. Ya know the one that lists total cpu usage, and then cpu usage for each process ie Store and so on. I am on the path of its a corrupt calendar appointment because one of the people having this issue is my boss and I just moved his account back to the old server and he is still having this issue. There is no load on that server at all.

I ran performance optimizer last night and no change in performance. I do however have more information regarding whats happening. The Outlook not responding is occurring when in Calendar accepting and declining meetings. There is not a lot of slow down when doing regular email. Currently the average CPU usage on the store is running at 30% to 45% with a max of 148%?????? Anyone seen this before?

Slow performance is better then the screaming that will occur if I down it during business hours.

I have not disabled the other server yet as I am still moving public folders off of it. No one had complained until I moved the last 30 or so users from the other server on to this one over the weekend. I didn't want to remove the server from the site if I could get it repaired and move folks back on to it.
