sounds like your disk is getting filled up ? You should probably do what you can to keep 20% free space at any time, - have you tried running the Clean-up wizard for the drive ?

Windows 2000 Server environment. &nbsp;Having HORRIBLE promblems with DNS service halting - no error messages thrown. &nbsp;I could STOP the service, then START it, and all would be back to normal - for awhile.<br />
<br />
Is it possible that a HIGHLY fragmented disk (no contiguous free space (white) on the analyze process of the defrag) could cause such an issue? &nbsp;Is it possible? &nbsp;Is it likely? &nbsp;Any ideas where this might be documented? &nbsp;I was looking EVERYWHERE but there.<br />

Thoughts?<br />

Highly Frag'd Disk - DNS Problems?

The Windows operating systems have distinct methodologies for designing and implementing networks, and have specific systems to accomplish various networking processes, such as Exchange for email, Sharepoint for shared files and programs, and IIS for delivery of web pages. Microsoft also produces server technologies for networked database use, security and virtualization.
