John,
Thanks for the message. Page faults were very high.
We did a major defrag last night, and ftp hasn't had any
errors today. We started out with 83k+ blocks of less than
1000 sectors...72% of our free disk space was in these small
blocks. After the defrag, we have 544 of these small blocks,
only 1% of our free disk space.
I didn't look at this until yesterday, because someone was
supposed to have set this up as a weekly process on all of
our systems several months ago....ooops.
