can you eloborate on this process i was looking at resource pools is this the correct area in sql 2008

Hi all Can someone tell me if I can limit the amount of ram that is used by sql server 2012 as I have a Library database on sql 2008 on the same server this is now running like a dog and eventually packs in. I need to stop and start the sql 2008 instance then it works again for a while. on server 2012 Sims/FMS/Discover/solus3 on the sql 2012 instance Eclipse.net is running on the 2008 instance (support say i can not move to 2012) The server is running at 90% ram usage (expected) got more ram coming but I will be in the same boat once sql 2012 gets its hands on it. This problem only happened once sims was migrated to sql 2012 as it was on sql 2008 with no slow downs. any ideas.

yea he is sorting me a quote out

After upgrading to sql 2012 my measily 8 gig of ram is just not cutting it. I have had quotes off dell and they are just beyond stupid over 200 quid for 8 gig server is dell power edge 2970 HK002 4 Dual In-line Memory Module, 2G 667M, 256X72, 2RX8 is the current ram 4x2gb its about 4 years old has anyone got any lying around that we might be able to purchase. Quotes from suppliers welcome thanks in advance

Thanks for your help. The old server is no more. Still have a few dns issues that im working on but the macs are working again.

ok ping fqdn and ip on the mac client both resolve did dcdiag and only errors are from replication this is expected due to dead server. cant demote failed server through recovery mode so i need to clean meta data and stop replication of dns

just checking before i try and demote the old server my main server holds these roles a does this look ok(well it must be otherwise all our windows network would be down face palm moment) Schema master SCHOOLSERVER.mydomain.local Domain naming master SCHOOLSERVER.mydomain.local PDC SCHOOLSERVER.mydomain.local RID pool manager SCHOOLSERVER.mydomain.local Infrastructure master SCHOOLSERVER.mydomain.local The command completed successfully. Only thing i could not see was wins role

My main server is already the GC the failed server was just a backup for the main server as the roles it had are DNS DHCP I think i will bite the bullet tomorrow Its nice to get the Gotchas out of the way thats why I asked The macs are funny with DNS im pretty sure it is that as i can rebind them and then once they are rebooted the users can not log on........what a pain in the rear i have to rebind again. It kinda sucks thanks again

my windows systems are fine its my macs that are throwing a wobbler

Thanks for that just a few questions I have 2 servers one being my main server and the other is a backup domain controller that has dns and dhcp etc i can log onto the failed domain controller using activ directory recovery mode i should then perform the command Dcpromo /forceremoval this should not break my existing main domain controller is this correct? i will need to perform a metadata cleanup after or as i can actually get onto the failed domain controller should i do something different

Hi i have a backup domain controller and it has died how can i stop computers from trying to authenticate from it. do i remove the a record from trom dns to stop this or can someone give me an idea of how to stop authentification from this server server 2003

installed it then quickly uninstalled it then hid the cd it is rubbish

solus 3 is working very well here it does have its qwerks but does the job. main thing is the firewall has to be set correctly or you cant install the client.

On the desktops the hard drive mounting screws are too tight take one out and it will make it so much quieter

Broke out the 5p christmas wrap i got in january and started to wrap the usual tat also bought in january I hate christmas so much. Christmas concert to get out the way then its a never ending job pushing the mobile gaming units round the school because the last week of term is just a waste of time no educational value.

just send the rover to find the american buggy that will prove everything

Btw. I have powered it on and done the update before wrapping it up for the daughter. Didnt want a dead door wedge for xmas

I thought it was a little high. I got mine at standard retail price so happy days Think im gonna give them a miss from now on. Very very bad practice but some people will pay if they are desparate.

I have used them a couple of times with no problems

Ps4 bundle deal at simplygames.com. For those who might want one for xmas

Lanschool in use here the software is easy to install and manage it also can control mixed enviroments pc an mac in the same area. it is very reliable and the pricing is extremely good especially if you tell them you are migrating from another product. you get a discount if you say this. pricing works on per machine blank screen keyboard monitoring for swear words all keystokes logged web history block apps and internet show teachers screen to multiple users co browsing it is much more reliable than net support great piece of software

Ok swapped the drive said it was rebuilding. But had not moved from 0% after an hour so i have left it over the weekend. Hope its ok when i get back to work.

i have a new drive to put in so wish me luck

yes its a dell r510 server with perc6i controller brown trousers time backed up last night so it is time to change pants

do i need to take a faulty drive offline before swapping out for a new hard drive in a raid 5 configuration using dells open manager and it tells me one drive is about to go pop so do i take it offline trough open manager or do i just rip it out and put a new one in. never had hot swap drives before i have always powered down the servers production server and need to keep it online if possible BTW these are hot swap drives
