Standing at the server console or using RDP to access the server, WhatsUp Pro is extremely slow to respond.  If I double click an icon, it takes several seconds for the Properties to pop up.  Just about everything in the application takes forever to respond yet the server CPU time is like 10% and the server is a Compaq DL380G2 w/ a GB of RAM.

How many devices are you monitoring ? Are you using MSDE or Sql server ? is the db on the same server or another ? Is your antivirus scanning your DB ? Is your server doing something else or just WUP ?

These are a few questions needed to help. Never had any problem with WUP performance at all, even on a smaller platform... So there must be some issue in the setup I guess.

65 Windows servers                                                here in San Diego at two facilities
41 WTS servers                                                       here in San Diego at two facilities
44 Windows servers                                                at field sites around the world
88 UNIX servers                                                      here in San Diego at two facilities
51 ADE Windows and Linux/VMware servers         here in San Diego at two facilities
4 Enterprise websites                                             hosted here in San Diego at two facilities
17 Bindview agents                                                 at field sites around the world

We are using a locally installed instance of MSDE.  Yes, Norton AntiVirus is scanning the DB.  The server is pretty much dedicated to WUP.


BTW - Where did "All your base are belong to us" come from... I believe I have heard that before.

Well this doesn't seem to be an ENORMOUS implementation... Unless you have something like 50 snmp monitors per device of course !

I would definitely stop scanning the DB with your antivirus. This does no good (risk of db corruption) and COULD slow things a lot.

Also check that you don't receive too many events (like syslog or snmp traps). Since if you don't pay attention WUP writes all of this to the MSDE db, this could be a problem. You might want to monitor the MSDE counters a little bit to check that.

And, last but not least, keep in mind that MSDE is not meant for many concurrent connections. If you have people reporting on the DB etc... this could be a problem. You might then want to switch to full-blown sql server.

Other than these two things... I can't see why it would be slow.
