Which is the default TCP connect timeout in Windows? There is a registry key to configure it or it's set dynamically?
It is possible move a specific file to the beginning of the disk? I want to move my virtual machine disk files (virtual disk) to the beginning of the disk to improve disk access performance. I believe that this is possible because some defragmentation softwares use this technique to move system files to the beginning of the disk. What I want is a practical way (a script or a program) to do the same but moving the files that I choose.
How can I "gracefully" shutdown a node on WebSphere Network Deployment 6.1? My worry is do not end active sessions when a shutdown is necessary. My intention is to prevent a node of accepting new sessions and then, when there are no more active sessions, I can safely shutdown that node. I believe that this can be done preventing the node for accepting new sessions (but keeping the existing sessions until their end) AND and preventing the IBM HTTP Server to send requests to that node. There is some way to do this? There is other way more appropriate? Meanwhile I'm considering to enable session sharing among the nodes, but that is not achievable right now.
I'm tuning a production server that runs Windows Server 2003 SP2. I want to monitor the hard faults (read an write separately) for each process. Is it possible?
