RE: Ram upgrade NT4 SP6

2002-03-01 Thread Brian Ko

I'd have not seen those kind of recommendation, but I'd love the see
what Q article describes that you'd need to reapply SP after adding more
memory to your system.  I'd definitely reset the Virtual Memory settings
to your total memory + 100MB and run Exchange Performance Optimizer,
however.

As far as for reapplying SoftPaq after adding memory does not ring the
bell either.  When I as at the ASE class a year ago, instructor never
said anything like that unless I was looking out the window while he
said such a thing.  What I remember is that whenever you add memory to
your existing system, it's always good go into Compaq System
Configuration and save your current settings again (Press F10 when your
reboot your server.).  I was only told to always reapply Compaq SoftPaq
after applying Windows SP on your system, however.

Subject: Ram upgrade NT4 SP6


Hello,

I upgraded the Ram on my server from 512 to 1gig about a week
ago.
I found that after installing the Ram my server would lockup only when
the
backup is running.  So I put all the backups on hold and my server runs
great. I have backup exec 8.5. I emailed veritas about the problem and
this
is what they suggested: 

As a rule by Microsoft, whenever you apply any new software or Hardware 
changes, Microsoft recommends to re-apply Service Pack on top of an 
existing one.

Just try reapplying SP6a on top of an existing one which is most likely
to 
be the cause.

Also, since your Virtual Memory size will be as per your old RAM size.
You need to reconfigure Virtual Memory size 
E.g.: try setting it to 600MB 

You also need to reapply Softpaq which comes with Compaq machines. For 
further information, please refer the documentation came along with
Compaq.

Awaiting your feedback.



  Warm Regards,
  
  Vmail Team

So my question is has anyone ever had this problem and if so do you
think I
should do what they suggested above.

Thanks
Richard Tener

After Virtual Mem, optimizer... And it still fails... 
Perhaps you can isolate BE as the culprit by running NTBACKUP to test.

Pagefile or virtual memory on NT4 must always be a minimum of the amount of
RAM plus 12Meg. Anything less and the OS can't flush the memory if it needs
to. Re-applying the SP will make no difference at all unless the machine was
not up to date anyway. All you have changed is hardware, no new software has
been loaded.
However, you SHOULD run the exchange optimizer as this will most likely
recommend some changes.
I run Veritas 8.6 and know it to be fussy about changes to machines. I
suggest you delete and re-create your exchange backup job. This will
probably fix it.

Also, since your Virtual Memory size will be as per your old RAM size. You
need to reconfigure Virtual Memory size 
E.g.: try setting it to 600MB 

You also need to reapply Softpaq which comes with Compaq machines. For 
further information, please refer the documentation came along with Compaq.

Awaiting your feedback.



  Warm Regards,

So my question is has anyone ever had this problem and if so do you think I
should do what they suggested above.

Thanks
Richard Tener

I think you mean you should run the optimizer after changing hardware.

RE: Ram upgrade NT4 SP6

2002-03-01 Thread Joyce, Louis

It wasn't what they said. Microsoft said it.

'As a rule by Microsoft, whenever you apply any new software or Hardware 
changes, Microsoft recommends-'

So I would try it.

Hello,

I upgraded the Ram on my server from 512 to 1gig about a week ago. I
found that after installing the Ram my server would lockup only when the
backup is running.  So I put all the backups on hold and my server runs
great. I have backup exec 8.5. I emailed veritas about the problem and this
is what they suggested: 

As a rule by Microsoft, whenever you apply any new software or Hardware 
changes, Microsoft recommends to re-apply Service Pack on top of an 
existing one.

Just try reapplying SP6a on top of an existing one which is most likely to 
be the cause.

need to reconfigure Virtual Memory size 
E.g.: try setting it to 600MB
