Re: Normal CPU?

Thanks for your posts, Tom.  I just recently got off the phone with IBM 
Tech Support.  He also looked at the buffer size, so I would have to say 
that your dabbling is pretty well on-target.  And so was your analysis as 
to whether it was the cause or not...

The actual cause appears to be a known issue with mail rules.  The hotfix 
for my current release of the Domino server just became available.  I have 
been operating under a misunderstanding whenever mail rules would be 
suggested as a cause.  I had seen the SPR in the knowledge base and 
thought that it didn't apply to our situation because I'm the only one 
that makes any changes to server rules, and I hadn't made any.  He 
straightened me out -- the SPR actually is concerned with all mail rules, 
as client mail rules are also registered and run on the server -- a fact 
that I knew, but wasn't accounting for.

Tonight, I will be applying the hotfix and trying once again to recreate 
the problem to test.  Fingers and toes are firmly crossed.  ;-)

Thanks again,
Patrick

Re: Normal CPU?






A quick follow-up to my previous post:
Based on the help text I copied from the AS/400, it might sound like I 
might be recommending decreasing the buffer size. You might want to try it 

both ways. Decreasing it will slow down the data transfer. Increasing it 
will allow more of the individual e-mail messages to be received. Note 
that this is not the buffer size for the entire system, but for each TCP 
conversation, so be careful with really large numbers. Either way, the 
problem is probably on the receivers end, processing the buffers. Larger 
buffers might just mask the problem. A really small buffer might help 
point out which packet is choking the system, if packet data is the 
problem.
