| What's the answer to this question anyone?
All Servers in your network run W2K Server. Users in the sales dept have reported very slow performance when accessing a DB, which is hosted on a multiprocessor server called Serv. The DB was designed for SMP and for use on NT4 computers. The DB runs as a background app. Serv1 also runs the same DB but access times are good on this server. Both servers have identical hardware. Task Manager on Serv shows that the 1st processor is used predominantly more than the 2nd one. How can you optimise processor usage when running the DB App?
A. Increase the amount of physical memory & increase the size of the paging file on Serv.
B. Configure the DB to run in a separate memory space.
C. Set processor affinity for the DB to allow the application to use all available processors.
D. Increase the amount of physical memory and increase the size of the paging file on Serv1.

| Since the hardware is identical, your best bet would be to set processor affinity for the database to use all processors.  | |
