Comparison Domino 8.5.1 64-bit on Windows 2003 vs. Domino 8.5.1 64-bit on Windows 2008

Hello All,

We plan to upgrade our existing domino environment to the latest version 8.5.1 or probably 8.5.2. We want to decide for operating system version either Windows 2003 64-bit Server or Windows 2008 64-bit Server.

Any useful comparison information which might help us our decision making?

Hi

If u want do yourself a favor, run Notes on Windows 2003.

My exp with w2k8:

  • it needs around 50% more memory

  • it needs just for basic install way more disk space

  • Sametime may crash the server on shutdown

  • overall Windows 2003 is much faster

see my post on this topic:
