nelliott Posted May 13, 2003 Share Posted May 13, 2003 We have an 8 pc network with FM Server 5 running on Windows Server 2000 and all Client PCs running on Win2k. When scripts are running on one pc, users of the other pc's are finding general performance (eg. opening Word, emails etc) slowing down considerably. Is this meant to happen?!

LiveOak Posted May 13, 2003 Share Posted May 13, 2003 No. Sounds like it might be a network load problem. What is your network type and are you using hubs or switches? -bd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kurt Knippel Posted May 13, 2003 Share Posted May 13, 2003 What kind of "scripts" are running? What else is running on the Win2k Server? File sharing? Domain Controller? DNS? Entrouage Server? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nelliott Posted May 14, 2003 Author Share Posted May 14, 2003 Network is tcp/ip utilising 1 switch. Nothing else is running on Win2k server. It is a dedicated machine to host fmserver, no file sharing etc Scripts tend to be checking for duplicates, deletes etc Thanks in advance for any help Nick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anatoli Posted May 14, 2003 Share Posted May 14, 2003 Is it switch or hub? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spiderman Posted May 15, 2003 Share Posted May 15, 2003 Being redundant... what kind of scripts are you talking about? When does the problem started? For me it looks like there's something wrong with your switch however, we definitely need more details to issue a better opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nelliott Posted May 15, 2003 Author Share Posted May 15, 2003 It is a switch, not a hub. Problems seem to happen only when running scripts, especially when doing mass deletes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anatoli Posted May 15, 2003 Share Posted May 15, 2003 If it is switch, then the traffic between FM server and clients ports cannot affect other users plugged in different ports. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nelliott Posted May 16, 2003 Author Share Posted May 16, 2003 I know the logic Anatoli, but it is happening and I don't know what to do. (And I have double checked, it is definatley a switch not a hub) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EddyB Posted May 16, 2003 Share Posted May 16, 2003 May be a faulty switch or dodgy ports on the switch. Try this Disconnect all cables going into the switch except for: FMServer 2 Clients Run a script on 1 of the clients, is the other client affected? Ed.

Spiderman Posted May 18, 2003 Share Posted May 18, 2003 Try your database without FM Server to see what happen. Also, check your "suspect" script, maybe need some code improvement or debugging job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
