Sunday night we finished the convert on the last of our R5 mailboxes to R6. We ran through the compact/updall of all the mailboxes both before and after the upgrade (probably overkill, but better safe then sorry?)
All of the mailboxes show ODS of 43 (R6 filetype) and show inotes6.ntf template.
Prior to this upgrade the Availability Index of the server was around 80-90 for 2500 mail files and other production databases.
Yesterday and today the AI is down to around 50-60 and seems to be holding steady, all of the users on that server are complaining that its REAL slow to access mailfiles, databases, etc.
Theres only 119 users connected now as I type this, and thats about all we have throughout the day (those servers are all out in the field/home so they replicate/dial up to access, which is also going slow when they download mail/replicate)
Is it possible this is laggy because of the ugprade and so many people are hitting it at once downloading the design/template changes?
Or is it possible now that upgrading to the R6 templates, the server isn’t robust enough to handle the load?
Here are the specs of the server:
Quad Xeon 3.4ghz
6 gigs ram
Win2k3 Server Enterprise with SP1
roughly 700 gigs of drive space in Raid, with about 300some gigs free.
When I look at the performance tab of the task manager it shows the 4 processors rougly low on the chart, some spikes at random intervals, overall CPU usage shows 2%
PageFile useage shows 1.7gig
Any ideas?
Will it get better once everyone has completed the downloads?
