If Task Manager's reporting isn't good enough, one could run Taskinfo and see how much memory is locked, committed, and in swap before and after. It's quite informational in researching memory leaks.
Exchange may "remember" to restore some essential info from the previous session (from which it gracefully exited); but I'd try to "gracefully" live with that; I sure wouldn't "cold-power-off" to prevent it. -----Original Message----- From: Kevin Miller [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, April 01, 2002 2:24 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Exchange server reboot simple q Do you have proof that is does anything? --Kevinm CHFR, M, WLKMMAS, UCC+WCA, And Beyond http://www.daughtry.ca/ For Graphics and WebDesign, GO here! -----Original Message----- From: Beasley, Phil [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, April 01, 2002 11:23 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Exchange server reboot simple q We reboot to clear memory on a biweekly basis.. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, April 01, 2002 2:12 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Exchange server reboot simple q I don't reboot unless I absolutely have to. This includes network equipment as well as servers. If you have to reboot things on a monthly basis for "network stability", there is an underlying problem that should be addressed. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -K.Borndale IT Manager Sybari Software 631.630.8569 -direct dial 631.439.0689 -fax http://www.sybari.com "One man's ceiling is another man's floor" |---------+----------------------------> | | "Joe Irvine" | | | <jirvine@tbopayro| | | ll.com> | | | | | | 04/01/2002 11:53 | | | AM | | | Please respond to| | | "MS-Exchange | | | Admin Issues" | | | | |---------+----------------------------> >----------------------------------------------------------------------- >---- -----------------------------------------------------------------------| | | | To: "MS-Exchange Admin Issues" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> | | cc: | | Subject: RE: Exchange server reboot simple q | >----------------------------------------------------------------------- >---- -----------------------------------------------------------------------| I cold-boot my entire network once a month.. it works wonders for network stability.

Or do you? Our exchange server has been up for 7 months straight now w/o a reboot. I am wondering if it would be a good idea to reboot it every now and then-- free up any memory leakages, etc.. Is it necessary, or can I let it just keep chugging away until it is necessary? Any input, thoughts, etc. would be great. Thanks. paul green seattle --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.
