Optimise Performance Settings

[Guest Mark Stoker]

We have just upgraded one of our 2000 Terminal servers to 2003, this included

a Hardware upgrade.

 

SPEC: Windows 2003 Standard

Max 20 RDP connected users

Database server with front-end POS application.

Dual Xeon 1.8GHz processors.

1 GB RAM

RAID-1 SCSI

15K 130GB disks

Disk Optimisation with Diskepper

 

How can I optimise the system for the best performance.

 

1.) What settings should I be choosing under the 'Advanced -> Performace

options' settings ?

 

2.) Should I be using 'System Managed' for the Paging File ?

 

3.) Should I turn on "Enable advanced performance" feature ?

The performance settings can best be set to "adjust for best performance"
