The Blackboard file server was replaced with a new file server running the Veritas file system. The new file system will give us better backups and the ability to expand the EVA LUN easily. Blackboard was performance tested with Empirix both before and after the file server was replaced. The new file server performed as good or better in all tests.
Also during this maintenance time the PAE/High Mem switch was enabled on the SQL server. This should give SQL access to more memory and reduce OS paging. This could help SQL performance.
