[THIN] Re: New HP Servers

Sounds like Mcafee, we have a similar problem with our w2k desktop servers.  When Mcafee updates the dat files it occasionally causes the server to hang, unfortunately that's as far as we have got so far.

Subject: [THIN] New HP Servers

We just purchased 8 new HP DL360 servers with dual Quad Core processors and 16GB or RAM.  We are running Win2k3 Enterprise.  Only 1 of them is R2.  We are have installed and published MS Office 2003 Professional, Adobe Acrobat Reader, a few Windows apps (e.g. notepad, etc.) and many URL links using I.E. 6 (we are NOT using IE 7). 

 

The problem is that since we have put these servers into production we have had many issues with the servers hanging on us.  When this happens the server will no longer accept new connections (both RDP and ICA) and when you connect to iLO you just have a blank screen.  You can still see user connections via CMC but most users report very slow connections. 

 

My guess is this has something to do with either these super fast / high memory new servers and our lack of configuration or McAfee Virus Scan 8.0 / ePO configuration.

 

Does anyone have any recommendations for me?

 

Thank you,

 

Jim Medeiros
