Howdy everyone!
Yup. John brought the new db server on stream this morning about 4:00 am after much stress testing. It’s now our primary db server and the old one is serving as back-up. We immediately noticed a tremendous boost in speed and throughput, but of course there were very few posters online. Was praying it would continue under a load. Thank God, it appears to be. The new eight cpu db server is very powerful and has many gigabytes of ultra fast memory and solid state storage devices, etc. (and that’s just about the limit of my technical vocabulary). But it appears to be working just fine.
Love the new server....thanks Gents, it rocks! *Hugs*
