HELP slow network, high pings, proliant 6500
I have a serious problem. I have been fighting with this for days. i recently aquired a compaq proliant 6500. I am testing it out on my small home network which consists of one 2k3 server and one workstation. Network performance on my LAN has allways been fine.
I installed 2k3 server onto the proliant and joined it to the AD domain. As soon as i had it set up i noticed network performance was extremely slow. Even files smaller than 2MB will take 5 minutes if they even transfer before timing out. Internet access proved to be equally slow.
In order to remove my network from the troubleshooting process i removed the proliant from my doman and connected it directly to my ADSL modem. No hub, no switch, no router. Internet performance was still terrible. Around 30kbps when it should be closer to 1400kbps (what i get from any other machine on the LAN).
pings to other machines on my lan will time out, then ping high, then the occasional >1ms.
Pings to the net do the same thing. I am totally confused.
If anyone has ANY ideas at all please help me out here. I have tried 3 different lan cards and 3 different network cables. I am positive at least that it isn't a problem within my network because i get the same results with the proliant connected directly to the net via the ADSL modem.
Thanks for any help

that is a ping from my workstation to the prolaint. pinging from the proliant to any other machine on my lan, or to the net, gives very similar results.

I ran ping twice, that is pretty much how it goes no matter how many times i try to ping. Results from the proliant are identicle. The loopback pings out fine and the other machine pings back just as eratically. I am going to try yet another network card (not that i really think it's going to help).
Thanks again,
Jason.

Re: HELP slow network, high pings, proliant 6500
Before doing the install, did you install the latest BIOS and firmware(s) from here:
http://h18023.www1.hp.com/support/files/server/us/locate/69_1105.html
You say you installed the Proliant Support Pack; was it version 7.00A? If not, get it at the same link.
My only other suggestion would be to try a conventional W2K3 install (without SmartStart) and then install PSP 7.00A and see if that makes a difference.
Hope something here helps.
Make a great day!

Re: HELP slow network, high pings, proliant 6500
Since problem we are getting is intermediate. We need to proceed with step by step
What is the length of the connection cable ?
Have we tried to change the cable ?
Is the Nic's firmware/Driver updated ?
What is the status of ping from server itself when we are failed to ping from workstation?
At the same moment if you try to run the HP Daignostic tools does it report any error information ?
Have we tried with any other nic instalaltion on the same server ?

Prashant S.
