we have NT servers here... The DB server has been shut down twice this year
oth times for software changes. We have even run the machine out of diskspace
once... Our fileserver hasn't been shutdown this year.
The Servers are Windows NT 4.0 SP6a and the DB server is running ORACLE 8.0.4
I'm not a MS advocate - the fact that minor software option changes so often require
a restart is pretty bad... But this should put NT stability in perspective - it can be
Quite stable for some uses...
