[comp.dcom.lans] Server failures: How often do they occur and why?

romeo@lindy.Stanford.EDU (Patrick Goebel) (01/06/90)

   In contemplating the installation of a new LAN, it is relatively
easy to become paranoid about bringing the whole network down with a
server failure.

  Reality Test:  does anyone have any stats on the frequency of server
failures and their causes?  I have in mind moderate to large networks
with servers in the 32Mb RAM/1Gb disk range.

Send me e-mail and I'll post a summary of the results.
