Which versions of Window can perform best with CiscoWorks?

Hi,
Please advice that currently we have 3200 logical devices configured on CiscoWorks and CiscoWorks is running very very slow. CiscoWorks installed on server with Windows Server 2003 32-bit and this version of windows it can only support RAM up to 4GB, which is already installed. In order to increase the RAM we have to upgrade the windows version as well.
Please advise that which versions of Window can perform best with CiscoWorks.  E.g. Windows Server 2003 with Service Pack 1 (SP1), Standard Edition 64-bit: or Windows server 2008 etc. Please advise us the full windows release version as we will upgrade windows as per your suggestion.
We are currently using the LMS 3.2, RME 4.3.0, CM 5.2.1

Please refer to the Installation Guide for Windows server requirements. Here is the link:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/net_mgmt/ciscoworks_lan_management_solution/3.2/install/guide1/prereq.html#wp1099303
Given that you want to stay with Windows Server, Server 2008 Standard Edition with service Pack 2 would be your best choice.
NOTE that your should not (and cannot) use Server 2008 R2. That version in only supported with LMS 4.0.1. LMS 3.2 will not work with Server 2008 R2.
With a 64-bit OS, you can increase your RAM - which is usually constraining system performance on systems with 32-bit OS. I recommend just putting in 16 MB. Why skimp on $100 RAM with $20,000 software?
Your other alternative is to divide the server roles across several machines. That is a pretty complex task so I'd do the OS and RAM upgrade first and see how that helps you out.
Re "Linux" LMS 3.2 (and 4.0/4.0.1) is only supported on Windows and Solaris operating systems. Plus if you're not a Uniux admin, the learning curve can be steep for your first dip in the water.

  • Which version of Windows 7 does work with BootCamp?

    Hello guys,
    I have a lion macbook, but I heard that it does not work with xp anymore (and I do not have an old backup with xp).
    So what kind of windows 7 can I use? A simple OEM Version, a Retail version or do I need a full version?
    On the web I read something about some Retail Versions, they won´t work with BootCamp?
    Thanks for your answer!

  • Which version of Windows is the best to run smoothly on Boot Camp

    ???

    Hi nichols,
    Apples BootCamp lets you install a 32-bit Windows XP with at least SP2 or Windows Vista onto an Intel-based Mac.
    And 64-bit Windows Vista on these Macs http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1846
    Windows 7 support is currently in the pipeline.
    See the Tech Specs of BootCamp here http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1899
    And the announcement of Windows 7 support http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3920
    Personally I use XP 32-bit and never had any problem.
    I avoided Vista since I don't need it and therefor see no reason to shell out money for it.
    Quite a lot of people have already installed Windows 7 even without official support from Apple.
    The hatter has an ongoing thread full of helpful tips about Windows 7 http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1866970&tstart=15
    On a side note: your signature says "Dual G5 2.5GHz 4GB RAM Mac OS X (10.5.2)"
    Please be aware that you can not use BootCamp to install Windows on a PPC-(PowerPC)-Mac.
    You have to have an Intel-based Mac.
    Regards
    Stefan

  • Which version of Windows to use with boot camp & Lion?

  • Which version of Windows to run?

    I was wondering if anyone has tested out Windows on the 2.53 ghz macbook pro yet? if so, which version of Windows runs the best on this model (XP 32 bit, Vista 64 bit, or 7 64 bit)? I have access to these 3 versions of windows right now, and want to know what the best option is. I really don't have any software that requires vista or 7, but I just spent over $75 to acquire Windows 7, so if it's as unstable as this forum leads me to believe, then I'll stick to XP. thanks!

    Apple drivers may be buggy or not up to the task, but Windows 7 is what Vista should have been.
    If you want, try running Windows 7 that you have already in Sun's VirtualBox and see how it goes, won't be native, not ideal for gaming, but I've used 7 for a full year now - I would never say it was buggy or unstable at all.

  • Which version of Windows Server 2012 needs to be ordered so that I can downgrade to Windows Server 2008 64bit Standard SP2

    Dears in Microsoft,
    We need to have Windows Server 2008 Standard SP2 64bit to be installed and due to the fact it is no more available in Microsoft.
    I am going to order Windows 2012 with 16 CAL in order to downgrade it to Windows 2008 Standard SP2 64bit. My question is:
    1. Which version of Windows Server 2012 needs to be ordered so that I can downgrade to Windows Server 2008 64bit Standard SP2?
    2. what else required in terms of product key, media, license...etc?
    Appreciate your kind supports.
    thanks and best regards

    Any licensing questions are always best addressed by a trained Microsoft licensing specialist.  You can find whom to call by looking at www.microsoft.com/licensing.
    One of the built-in rights of a Windows Server license is the right to run earlier versions of the operating system.  So if you purchase either Standard or Datacenter, you can run 2008 Standard.
    However, that does not provide the media or activation codes for earlier versions of the operating sytem.  You have to obtain those via other channels.  You should most likely contact a Microsoft reseller and talk to them.  They will
    most likely have a trained licensing specialist on hand to help answer your questions, and they should also be able to provide media for earlier distributions (for a slight fee).

  • Which version of Oracle database is best for Windows 7 Home Premium?

    Any input as to which version of Oracle database is best for Windows Home premium? Is there a major difference between the express edition and 10g itself as far as the interface/learning purposes goes?

    EssbaseApprentice wrote:
    Any input as to which version of Oracle database is best for Windows Home premium?That's easy to answer, none . No oracle database version was released for Home(Premimum) series. There are several blog posts/articles which do mention that they have installed oracle releases over Home(Premium) platforms but whether it would work or not, it would be just a lottery and help regarding troubleshooting would not be there.
    Is there a major difference between the express edition and 10g itself as far as the interface/learning purposes goes?You mean 10g Express Edition and 10g Enterprise, Standard Editions? If yes, then there is indeed difference. The Express edition is more like a developer's playground with a good looking GUI even there to administer it. EE or SE are the production releases , meant for being used in a very busy, highly concurrent environments. There would be additional features like RAC and Dataguard that would come with EE and wont be there in the XE. So if you are learning to become a production DBA, you should right away use EE or SE IMO .

  • Which versions of Windows 7/8 are supported/best for Boot Camp 4/5?

    Hello
    As the title suggests, I'm a bit confused as to which versions of Windows 7 work with Boot Camp 4, or whichever ships with Mountain Lion (which one, 4 or 5, comes with ML 10.8.3?).
    Mainly, I want to know if I can use an OEM copy, and what difference it makes to me, the end user, as opposed to a full license disk. Additionally, which service packs are supported? Eg, SP1 or SP2 or ...?
    Lastly, and this is more of an opinion question, but is Windows 7 or 8 better suited to a Mac? I have 2.5 GHz i5 processor, 8GB RAM, ML 10.8.3, Macbook Pro 13-inch Mid-2012.

    You can get a better idea of which version are supported by each Boot Camp version in this website > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5634?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
    In general, Boot Camp 4 supports 32-bit Windows XP, and 32 and 64-bit Windows Vista and 7, and Boot Camp 5 supports 64-bit Windows 7 and 8 versions (in compatible computers).
    You can use a OEM or System Builder license, always that you have bought it from a source like Amazon or NewEgg. If you are trying to use the copy you got from another PC, it won't work. Boot Camp supports Windows XP SP2 and later, so all service packs released after it are supported.
    Windows 8 has been out for a few months and it has got a new interface. If you don't want to learn a new interface, go for Windows 7. Both versions will work properly on your computer, so it's a matter of personal choices

  • Which version of Windows is best to play pc games on MacPro using bootcamp?

    I have a macpro and want to start playing PC games using bootcamp.  Which version of Windows (Vista or 7) is best for gaming? 

    It gets into more things, not to confuse but:
    XP address 1.9GB which won't work iwth 1GB video cards
    Windows 7 64-bit hands down. But if your game or you want and have dual processor, then Pro.
    System Builder. No need for retail and costs 1/2.
    Windows 8 Preview. Free and runs great but dont expect everything to work, especially any Apple software.
    Windows 7 needs 50GB. Paltry amount for today.
    Putting Windows on same drive? don't advise doing so. Besides clutter it would go to the inner slow tracks of drive platter.

  • Which Version of Windows 7 Should I use?

    I hve a fairly new Macbook Pro. Mid 2012 Version just before the new display came out. My question is, which version of Windows 7 should I use? I've noticed that I can purchase either the 32Bit or 64Bit version, but I am not sure and don't want to load something that might be bigger than I need. I'll only be using Windows to run The Sims 3. This means over 9 expansion packs+ and their EA store content.
    Here is what I am running on my mac:
    Model Name:          MacBook Pro
      Model Identifier:          MacBookPro9,2
      Processor Name:          Intel Core i5
      Processor Speed:          2.5 GHz
      Number of Processors:          1
      Total Number of Cores:          2
      L2 Cache (per Core):          256 KB
      L3 Cache:          3 MB
      Memory:          4 GB
      Boot ROM Version:          MBP91.00D3.B08
      SMC Version (system):          2.2f38
      Serial Number (system):          C1MHN1TNDTY3

      Sudden Motion Sensor:
      State:          Enabled
    As you can tell this isn't a higher end Macbook Pro, as it was a gift, but I am unable to play the game without it crashing since they do not have an updated patch for Mac users - and it is very unlikely that they will even care to update the patch. This seems to be the only guarenteed fix. I appreciate any help I can get, I just need responses soon so I can take advantage of the low prices for Windows 7 before they run out.

    Microsoft will be supporting Windows 7 with full updates for another two years, so you won't have to worry about supplies running out any time soon.

  • How do I determine which version of windows os is installed on the computer that my application is running on.

    I need to determine which version of windows os in on the computer running my application to make some minor adjustments to a subvi.  Is there a programmatic way to determine this using Labview.

    Or, use the Application property node Application>OS>Detailed Name.  Although I can't say anything about its output on other-than-Windows OSes.
