Hi All

Visited a  neighbouring company (same line of business as ours) running 430 users on a 
Compaq Proliant box with SCO Openserver 5 and Progress version 9.1c as database. 
Application is in-house. At the time of my visit the CPU usage was constantly running 
at 80%. No problems being experienced with users complaining the system is slow etc.

The server spec is as follows:

2x intel pentium III xeon 500Mhz processors
1.8GB RAM
Smart Array 3200 controller
Compaq Fast SCSI-2 controller
10x 18.2 GB Ultra SCSI-2 drives (8 drives are RAID 1, other 2 RAID 0) and 5 drives on 
Ultra 2 controller and 5 drives on Ultra 3 Controller
2x 10/100 Tx Ethernet controllers

We are running AIX v5.1 with Maintainance Level 3 and UniVerse 10.0.7 (190 users) on a 
p620 box with the following specs:

System Model: IBM,7025-6F1
Machine Serial Number: 6577ABA
Processor Type: PowerPC_RS64-III
Number Of Processors: 2
Processor Clock Speed: 602 MHz
CPU Type: 64-bit
Kernel Type: 32-bit
LPAR Info: -1 NULL
Memory Size: 4096 MB
Good Memory Size: 4096 MB
Paging 3072MB 
Firmware Version: IBM,M2P01208

Our box is struggling with the 190 users. File types are T30. All our lines are 
minimum 64K diginet.

Comparing the 2 boxes, the amount of users on each box, any reason why we are 
struggling with the 190 users? The transaction volumes of the company running 430 
users are considerably higher than ours?

Any comments please

Thanks

Andr�
