To be honest, I had a Windows NTv4 server up and running for 423 days straight (the real kind of uptime *I* like to talk about) running Oracle 7.2.1. The boxen did auto maintenance on Oracle, and other things like defragment the NTFS volumes as 1 time a day, among other things. Basically Garbage collection 3rd party tools to help with the "common" NT Problems.

But, it crapped itself when a Hardware Raid Array went south. Therefore the end of the world for that machine, being a 4-way PentiumPro 200MHz with 1MB cache each Processor and 2GB Memory (4-Clock Parity/ECC - iffn you interested).

That was just before I left GRCC. They replaced the machine with a Single Pentium4 2.2GHz 1U machine.

If they could get W2K3Server to run that long, default install (with security tweaks of course) and Oracle... *I'd* be impressed. Nah, never happen.
