NT 4.0 SP 6a, Compaq platform. Does anyone have data on the NEED, not simply the practice, of power cycling NT servers every week or two?
If a “memory leak” exists, it should be measurable, and therefore open to analysis and remediation. If not, what does a reboot achieve? Thermal shock, and decreased MTBF that results would seem to argue against the practice. I’m wondering if anyone has data on this.
