Thanks for the replies, yes we used to disable SMB2 to remove the index corruption issue but this now seems to be a performance issue.
This particular scenario is 2 brand new Server 2012 boxes, fully patched. One is the server and one is a remote desktop box. So far nothing has been messed with or tweaked. An application which used to run fine on the older servers now runs a lot slower, the application in question is Pegasus Opera 3 which I know some of you are familiar with. Thanks Chris. -----Original Message----- From: ProfoxTech [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Alan Bourke Sent: 22 June 2017 10:37 To: [email protected] Subject: Re: VFP & Server 2012 There was an issue with SMB2 in the early days of Server 2008, which was subsequently fixed by MS and before the fix the workaround was to knock it back to SMB1. Ever since it was fixed we have not had to touch anything to do with these types of networking settings in the normal course of events. These days you definitely want everything running at SMB2 or SMB3 (as negotiated automatically between clients and the server) or it you'll definitely see sub-optimal speed. -- Alan Bourke alanpbourke (at) fastmail (dot) fm On Thu, 22 Jun 2017, at 10:25 AM, Chris Davis wrote: > Hi All > > I have read through previous posts on this subject, but the more I > read the more confused I get as to what advice I should be following. > > We have a situation where speed issues are affecting a VFP application. > The data is held on a Server 2012 server.
