Greetings All

I am rinning Windows Server 2003, SQL Server 2005, Rightfax 9.3, TSM and Mcafee antivirus on one Server. The server has been freezing at least 3 times a week and there is nothing in all logs. I am very confused.

Check you virus software firstr, you need to take out the .mdf and .ldf directories from the virus scan.

Run perfmon and check what is happening when it does freeze.

We are running RightFax in our organization and there is a known issue where it consumes all the resources if it runs for a couple consecutive weeks. To resolve this, there is a scheduled task to reboot the server once a week.

If there are other databases hosted on the SQL Server, I would suggest moving the RightFax application onto a separate server because you wouldn't want to reboot if it affects other applications.
