Win2000 Server performance problem

[Guest tlee]

I have a PC installed MS win2000 server(SP4) with SQL 2000 server.

 

Problem:

1) I find its respond (data access from client PC) becomes slow after

serveral weeks running.

 

2) could i need to run the defragment in win2000 server? (AD implemented)

 

Thanks

Defragging the disk might help but it would not cause the gradual

deterioration. This could be caused by a memory leak. Since it

takes several weeks for the speed to drop noticeably, you might

take a pragmatic approach and reboot the server automatically

every Saturday night.

Start a Command Prompt and type

 

shutdown

 

to see the syntax for this command, then use the Task Scheduler

via the Control Panel to schedule the shutdown command.

If one is already at the prompt, why not just use the "at" command instead

of going through all the hullabaloo of starting yet another graphical

interface to the same thing?

Indeed - if you're comfortable with the command line syntax of

at.exe and are aware of some of its restrictions (which, incidentally,

are a frequent subject in these help groups). And if you're very

fond of console commands then you should have a look at the

successor of at.exe - schtasks.exe from WinXP.
