hi guys,
i need some advice.
we have here:
win2003r2sp2-32bit 4gb ram dual quad-core xeon (8 cpu´shown and
managable)
2 instances sql2000sp4, both with default settings, both equally
used ...
what would now be the recomended settings to provide the best
solution.
how should ram and procs be splitted to maximize performance?
ram for system: 1gb
ram for sql#1: 1.5gb
ram for sql#2: 1,5gb
proc 0+1 : system
proc 2-4: sql#1
proc 5-7: sql#2
or what do you guys think?
thanx in advance

I would definately let SQL and the OS manage processor resources. There is
also a good case to leave both instances's memory dynamic. Either way, we do
not have enough info to say how it should be split.

You need to provide more information regarding your performance requirements
and the characteristics of teh workloads for each instance. No specific
recommendations can be made based soly on the info you have provided.
