| A | B |
| utilization | % time processor is being used |
| high utilization | average is >60% |
| Current licensed connections | # of clients attached to server |
| cache buffers | RAM to hold NLM's loaded during instal & files users are accessing |
| dirty cache buffers | cb updated but not written to disk |
| dirty cache buffers >70% of total | evaluate disk system and upgrade to faster disk components (incr. service proc) |
| current disk requests | read or writes that have been issued but not completed |
| packet receive buffers | portion of server mem. to temp. hold data arriving from wkst |
| if prb reach max | check util, cb, dcb, curr. disk req. & serv proc to identify bottleneck |
| service processes | task handlers allocated to service client requests |
| directory cache buffers | server mem. that holds part of dir. table |
| LAN traffic | traffic to server, other servers, peer & topology |
| open files | # of files open on server |
| garbage collection interval | max # of minutes between GC for an NLM cb |
| # of frees for GC | min # of times the free routine must be called by nlm before GC |
| Min free mem for GC | min # of bytes avail in nlm cb free list for successful GC |
| allocated mem pool | mem NLM's are using |
| cache buffers value | amount of mem avail to users for file caching tasks, loading apps, access & printing |
| cache movable mem pool | mem NW mem mgr has for nw resource, vol tables |
| cache non-movable mem | mem allocated for short term needs of server based apps |
| print queue critical properties | name, volume |
| printer critical prop | name, Q, type, conn, inter, port |
| print server crit properties | name, printer |
| printer setup order | queue, printer, print server |
| task performed before changing ipx or context | load dsrepair |
| 3 for simple network design | analyze for level of use, standardize, resources close to users |
| sys vol out of space | files, apps & Q's on other vol, set min disk space alert, SET VOLUME LOW WARNING |
| SYS should only contain | basic OS files and Directory |
| 2 tasks to correct failed merge of trees | posible actions: delete unknown obj after 24 hrs, begin troublshooting sync errors |
| nw is slow, low CB avail | unload unused NLM's, use monitor to check ECB's |
| taks before change ipx | ensure replicas are synced, delete references to Directory |
| 3 to increase fault tolerance | virus prot, UPS, redundancy in HW |
| bindery functions to integrat 3 & 4 | ensures file and pritn conncetivity between 2 OS's |
| Dirty Cache buffers negative affect | >70% of avail cb |
| just deleted server, next step | confirm that server has been removed from replica lists and partitions are syncd |
