wear the badge and let the server die! -----Original Message----- From: Milton R. Dogg [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, April 01, 2002 2:39 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Exchange server reboot simple q
This is a religious thing more then something that people will listen to logic on. Those of us that know what we are doing, and run big always on shops where 4 9's is not enough. DO NOT REBOOT on a schedule just because. Some of you who grew up in win 9x where reboots were a good thing, and have applied that logic to Servers for the sole reason that is a Microsoft product will not be swayed by logic, case studies, flows of memory management or another other system. Let us drop this now before I become annoyed with people trying to tell others that they reboot all the time. Adding more confusing to the people learning as they go from this list. The opinion of those that answer most of the Questions on this list is to NOT reboot unless you have applied a SP and need to. Having servers going for more then a year with out a reboot is a badge of honor to be worn with pride.

Stating that a monthly reboot shows signs of instability is not a sound statement. It depends on your needs and concerns. If he said on a weekly basis, I would agree... -----Original Message----- From: Kevin Miller [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, April 01, 2002 1:24 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.
