William, I got the same issue on MS SQL on a remote server and find it very slow to start-up.
Are you using FQDN (fully qualified domain name) for all server references within BMC? With a correct setup in you DNS servers it should not make a difference. I found that we had less issues and quicker startup if I used FQDN for all server references. Your RAM your your mid-tier sounds low to me. Bring it up to 4 CPU's and minimum 4 GB RAM. This make no difference in start up for the app server. ~ Terje Sent from my iPad On 1 Mar 2012, at 16:26, "William Abdo" <william.a...@verio.net<mailto:william.a...@verio.net>> wrote: ** Hi All, I am respectfully asking for your wisdom in an issue I am having. I have noticed that our virtual servers are taking upwards to 45 minutes – 1 hour to start-up. This is unacceptable and I am currently in a guessing game for the true cause.

It used to take about 20 minutes to start and now it is upwards to 45 min to an hour. Do you have any suggestions for this issue?
