Thanks, Jay...I had heard about that as well, so I didn't install the OpenManage client on these machines... Thanks for the suggestion, though... At least the worst that can happen is getting fired...it's not like I'm going to get beheaded or anything... ;-) -Dave Melczer dmelczer@xxxxxxxx -----Original Message----- From: Jensen, Jay [mailto:jjensen@xxxxxxxxx] Sent: Monday, October 14, 2002 2:26 PM To: 'thin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx' Subject: [THIN] Re: Server Lockups -- Please Help Do you run Dell OpenManager? The original version of Dell OpenManage has some problems that affected the CMC. Newer version of Dell OpenManage fixes that problem as I have heard. I believe the older versions had a conflict with the Dell Assistant Web Page that was in conflict with the Data Store refresh of the CMC. Contact Dell to make find out for sure if this is potentially your problem. I am only basing this on some experiences that we experienced and found out that this was a known bug in Dell's Management software.

Then, all of a sudden everything just stops -- server can be pinged, and mouse movements allowed on the console, but nothing else. All sessions refuse to screen paint and lock up. The only way to get the server out of this mode is to power it off and power it on. Solutions tried: - Removed all printer port monitors - Recreated local host cache - Reinstalled MetaFrame XP, FR1, Hotfixes 1, 2, 8, 11, 12, 16. - Reinstalled SP6a for TSE - Re-created ICA connection in Connection Config Application - Set Priority on the teamed NICs - Updated drivers for NICs - Tried removing NICs from team and running with a single NIC active (tried both NICs) - Tried to hard-code NIC speeds and duplexes to avoid autosensing (can't do it -- Intel PRO software doesn't allow hard-coding of gigabit...autosense only...allows hardcoding of 10/100 at full/half, just nothing gigabit) Has ANYONE seen anything like this before? I'm preparing myself for the infamous pinkslip... Any suggestions welcomed, on or off list. -Dave Melczer dmelczer@xxxxxxxx **************************************************************************** * Please be advised that this transmittal may be a confidential attorney-client communication or may otherwise be privileged or confidential.
