"System" process using all resources
Posted by Terry on November 13th, 2003


The school I'm working with is experiencing the following
problem. Three identical servers, all with nearly the same
number of processes, packets, etc. The one server that
houses the user roaming profiles(300 teachers), mapped
data drive for each user(up to 800), and mapped "public"
folder(again up to 800), runs maxed out nearly all the
time (70-99% constantly). Nearly all of the resources are
being consumed by the "SYSTEM" process. Almost nothing
else runs on this server. Network sniffing says ethernet
usage only ~10%. Is this too much too ask from a dual PII
450's, 1GB Ram, raid 5 server? (I can't believe it is)
Thanks for any advice!
Terry
