asked on

Release cache Window server

We have a dynamic AX AOS server that always need to reboot to server in case some program run slowly.

Is there a quick way to clean up window memory rather than rebooting the server to affect daily operation ?

It depends what is taking the memory or other resources

When its running slowly have a look at memory and process utilisation in "Task Manager" and it theres on that high you can use a

NET STOP "Service Name"
then
NET START "Service Name"

just restarting the AOS service releases the Dynamics AX cashe, how many AOS's do you have on this one server? and how much memory does the server have?

A AOS server running on Window 2008 (64bit RAM) 12GB RAM supporting around 64 users. Tks

Is there a command to simply release the memory cache on Window, rather than reset any service in AOS in order not to affect any scheduled task ? Tks

what is your memory at on the server? 80% 90%?

is the server maxing out on memory?

why do you want to flush it??

ok so not too bad really.

looks like you might have a few server side processes running via batch maybe, this is why the CPU is in heavy to light use, memory looks ok, does it get much higher than that??

i would schedule a weekly service restart maybe Saturday or Sunday night, is this a virtual server?

What CPU & memory value will indicate  a h/w performance ? Is 30% CPU usage is still high ? How about the memory ?

Tks again.
