Hello everybody
I installed Centos 4.2, then vmware server and then a client fed6 and
Microsoftserver2003.
I only connected two workstations.During a transfer of large files from
another server to this installation the system gets very slow.I mean very
slow, hardly acceptable to work with.
If I take a backup on disk with tar, the system also gets slow but not so
slow.
The server has one Xeon processor and 3 GB ram, 2 x 73GB SATA mirroring.
Is there a way to test this system. When I try free and top this shows
information as if the whole memory is used. What do I have to look for.
What do I have to investigate on Vmware?
Thanks for help. I convinced the client to switch to linux, but I don't
think he is convinced. :)
