These Day I figure out the server is very slow ,before it was fast ,but now there is some delay with database response time,I had checked the event viewer,but nothing is there

could you please tell me if there is another way to check on the server(software+Hardware) and how can I make maintenance for blade server

How long has the db cluster been configured?

Typically, performance issues with a db server are not hardware related.

Can you give any more details about the servers?

model?

Operating System version?

Whats the bios at? How about firmware on the blade enclosure components?

Have you restarted the system recently?

Hi!

There is the HP insight diagnostic, part of the system management homepage that can run some online hw tests.
You also have the hp smartstart cd that you can use to run hw tests by booting on a cd.

See http://h18004.www1.hp.com/products/blades/components/c-class.html#tab3_content for more information about how to update the blades.

"Please give me the way to give you these details "

You can look at "Rack Firmware" while logged into the Onboard Administrator of the c-Class Enclosure.

You can look at the server details in the OA as well for additional information.

Did you notice the "slowness" was a gradual change over time? (i.e. got slower week after week). Or just one day it started being slow...
