RE: Clients expirence a slow mail server
There is a Q article that talks about exchange 2000 servers running on Advanced server that have 1GB+ of RAM needing the /3GB switch in the boot.ini but only Advanced Server not Server. -Original Message- From: John Q Jr. [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, July 10, 2002 3:59 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: Re: Clients expirence a slow mail server Typo = 9.8 GB - Original Message - From: Martin Blackstone [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Exchange Discussions [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, July 10, 2002 12:41 PM Subject: RE: Clients expirence a slow mail server You are out of disk space?

Heavy users, but only 55. The issue I am experiencing is that users complain about slow mail from Outlook. It takes for ever to perform any operation. But, if I reboot the mail server the issue goes away until the next day. Any ideas? Where should I be looking to improve system performance. All specs and details are below. When I run a topology calculator from the MS site it gives me the feedback that 1 server should be sufficient. Enterprise version Win 2K server Dual Intel 733 Procs 2.5 GB RAM 4 x 18.2GB (RAID 5) IS store = 89.GB (Public Store = 35MB) Anti Virus SW = Trend Scanmail6 for E2K (scanning body and attachments) Send aprox. 10K messages a day external, 10K internal All users use OLK XP, 5 OWA users. No POP or IMAP clients. (desktop = XP) Backups nightly of mail store and file system, NOT THE M drive! (Netbackup) network connection the mail system = 10ms. (1 100BaseT connection from mail system, all clients on same switch) High latency is shown for RPC packets from Perf mon, but unsure of the cause.

OWA 2000 issues
I know that this may have been covered before but I was wondering if there are any hot fixes to some of the calendaring issues that exist in OWA 2000. For example, reminder pop-ups are unable to be closed, acceptance of meetings are not entered into the calendar ...etc. I saw a few Q article that just said microsoft is aware of the problem but never saw any follow ups with fixes. Final question, is Exchange 2000 SP3 due out any time soon? Thanks.

RE: Am I in need of a serious db defrag?
Nav for Exchange in VAPI mode (or mixed with Mapi) is not actually causing a corruption but is rather causing a latency with how it scans mail. There is a setting to scan mail in the background which will scan all messages in advance. If you turn that on and allow an hour per GB of Information Store all messages currently in the store will be scanned and then the deleting issue will be greatly minimized. All this being said, here at Quinnipiac University with 10,000 users and a high mail traffic we have been reduced to only using MAPI. The same error you see with deleting will also happen in synchronization. Hope that helps.
