<p class="xmsonormal">One of my biggest customers is experiencing issues that appear to be related to resource utilization. I’ve never had a customer who needed more than a 2 node 1000 user cluster.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="xmsonormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="xmsonormal">They are getting close to some of the capacity levels listed in the sizing guides.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="xmsonormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="xmsonormal">I’m looking for some opinions on what the best way to deal with this. I have the hardware capacity for either method.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="xmsonormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="xmsonormal">Add a Third 1000 user Subscriber and turn off call processing and tftp on the Pub?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="xmsonormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="xmsonormal">Rebuild both existing servers to 2500 user OVAs?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="xmsonormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="xmsonormal">Add a third and do the rebuild also?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="xmsonormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="xmsonormal">Can I just make the existing server be the 2500 capacity level? I actually don’t understand the difference between the 2500 and 1000 user OVAs, the 2500 appears to actually be lesser capacity by default (1 less cpu). So go to 7500?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="xmsonormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="xmsonormal">I’d appreciate any opinions out there. Going to be doing some reading over the next few days to try and figure this out.<o:p></o:p></p>
