Re: Having 3-4 small databases on same server ?

Hello,

    I have 4 small/medium databases on a E250 and have had no issues.

    I have also run 2 @ 8.0.5 and 2 @ 8.1.7 as they we different in vendor use on this same box with no issues.

    All I have to say is make sure you have enough spindles and controllers as these are quite frequently overlooked as opposed to memory.

    Docs? Metalink or various on line resources.

    Take care,

John A. Pearson
