Re: [Skunkworks] IMPACTS OF A WRONG PAT NUMBER IN A HP SERVER DL 580

Hi guys, i have a problem with a server where the server performance is unstable,one time it is good and the other time is completely slow causing the sybase server running on the machine to be slow too. On the hardware side we checked the RAM and the part numbers were:398707-051..im not an expert in hardware but can someone confirm to me whether this part number is certified for HP SERVER DL 580.Or what else could cause a new HP server to be so unstable in speed your response will be highly appreciated

Maybe it is not the hardware. It could be the Sybase. I'm not very familiar with Sybase , but think I have heard that Sybase (older versions anyway) have a poorer table locking functionality than for instance other DBMS has. If your 500 users perform transactions on the same table, they infact have to stand in line to wait for the table lock !

If its the hardware why dont you consult the HP guys who sold it to you? Warranty is still covered!! On Fri, Nov 27, 2009 at 3:51 PM, Ngũgĩ Kĩmani <ngugikimani@gmail.com> wrote:
