Sounds like he’s dealt too much with win2k workstations and early xp’s in the
past. ;-)

Thanks,
We had an over zealous contractor in, who felt that re-booting the servers
every week was the best way forward. I have never had to do that in my many
years in the industry, and I am yet to see any best practice document that
backs that up.
Thanks

I usually reboot mine manually after each patch-Tuesday. My experience is that
the servers have a tendency to become flakey after being up for more than
forty-some days, with really weird problems just are just plain inconsistent
with any trouble-shooting. A reboot solves the problems in 99 cases out of 100.
YMMV though.
Once a week feels like a tad bit too often to me. You know how servers are, at
each reboot there is a risk they won’t come up again. 8-) Better keep the
reboots to a minimum is my advice.
HTH.

Hi Guys,
just wondering how often you would suggest one reboots thier servers. I have a
recommendation of once a week, is that too much?
Thanks
Pat
