Re: server connectivity??

I do not have a different switch to try. I was thinking switch as well. The
thing that kept me off that line of thinking was a reboot of the server
resolved the issue. Everything seems to be not using power save. Also, this
is a new problem. Last month I would say. Been fine for a few years up to
now.

Thanks

Check everything in the server to make sure there is no power saving going
on.
Check the properties of the nics make sure they aren't set to power save

Do you have a different switch you can try?

Hi everyone

about once every 36-48 hours I have a server that loses some connetivity. I
can remote desktop into the server but the server cannot get out to the
internet (although i have not tried IP to see if only a DNS issue). The
workstations lose connectivity to the server - mapped drives, printers, ect.
A reboot solves the issue.

Log files show no real error except that connectivity is down for any
service that needs it. IIS, DNS, ect.

Any ideas?

thanks
