I regularly inform the Exchange team of problems with Exchange, they always 
tell me to restart BES.  It's never a BES issue.

I've been pushing for BES5 but so far no luck.

I use two NICs, teamed on different switches for redundancy.

True, on topic is good.

Our BES tends to be one of the most stable servers I support.  I bounced ours 
around 2 months ago, and that was only to patch it up.  I think the uptime at 
that point was a year?  maybe.  This is on BES4 - we're going to 5 soon and I 
hope the stability continues.

Seriously folks ... let's get back on topic.

How often do you restart your BES?  Only when patches are required or there is 
some big error / problem.  If you have planned
reboots of your BES because of problems start to drum up then you have a 
systematic / architecture flaw that needs to be addressed.
BES isn't an application that needs reboots to "clear it up".

And to hopefully end the discussion on "how many users do you put on a BES on 
ESX?"  I've had 4000 users on a single BES.

You can pretty much put any app on ESX ... the reason vendors don't want to 
support applications on virtual servers is because
server admins / engineers / architects don't properly spec the resources 
required for the application.  Baselining and benchmarking
a server for 8 hours one day just doesn't cut it.  Lucky for BES it isn't too 
taxing on Disk I/O which is without a doubt the single
most improperly spec'd resource for a virtual environment.

I'd also stay away from multiple nics; just isn't needed.

Back to your regularly scheduled programming; Happy Friday.

Curious...do you incorporate a second Intel NIC with ESX for BES or share at 
the 100 user level?

Running BES 5.0 on a virtual server, roughly 550 users. I restart on updates or 
if we have an issue. Only happens every couple of
months or so.
