Hello,

Please advise whats the best platform for CiscoWorks installation. We are currently using the windows 2003 32-bit and CiscoWorks is slow.

We are currently using the LMS 3.2, RME 4.3.0, CM 5.2.1

THANKS

We are using 2008 R2 for LMS 4.0.1 - runs great - need loads of RAM and page file but we have not had many challenges. Java seems to run away with memory at times and we cycle out the services but it runs great.

Thanks for update. In comparison with windows server , is UNIX/ LINUX plateform will be better or not?

We moved off of UNIX platform for LMS 4.0.1 - but this is a matter of taste (in my opinion - I am not aware of any specific feature set only working on UNIX or Windows) and what best fits your environment.

Linux/UNIX is a better OS than Windows based as Windows-based OS chews up resources like crazy.
