Re: Safe to put exchange on file server.

What kind of load?

This issue is that the two workloads are conflicting. Exchange needs the
server to be optimized for applications. It does not use the filesystem
cache, but instead allocates memory and manages it's own cache for db pages.
A fileserver depends on in large part on the filesystem cache. You can tune
one way or the other, but not both at the same time. The result will be
poor performance and, if the load is high enough, resource depletion and
potentially hangs or crashes.

I have an admin that loaded our exchange on the same server as our file
server. I don't feel that is a good idea... Won't the server crash
because
of it???
Thanks HB
