Very powerful PC - yet slow performance

[Latif Yahya_1]

I am running HPSIM 4.1 on a Dell Poweredge 2650 server with 4 processors and 2 GB memory and W2K server with Java version 1.4.1, yet the performance I get from it is very very slow.
Is there anything I can do to speed it up?

[Rob Buxton]

Performance of what?
Data collection?
Discovery?
Web Access to HPSIM from the Server?
Web Access from a remote Workstation?

[Latif Yahya_1]

Accessing HPSIM altogether. No matter what I do on there, it takes very long time!

what kind of database you are using ?

I figure out that with MSDBE it ist really slow, but with a SQL 2000 it has improved a lot.

Maybe that also your situation

[Latif Yahya_1]

Database I am using is MSSQL. Could it be the java version by any chance?

Is it possible that you might be having network issues between your client and SIM?

Sorry if this sounds overly-simplistic, but I just want to eliminate the obvious.

[Claas Kruhoefer]

have you tried the following ?

Connect via terminal session and start SIM locally on the server.

Then it should be fastest possible. This is also my standard way to access the SIM.

If this is fast it is the client. What kind of java do you use an the client side ? maybe this is also an issue.
