Network Servers

6. Upgrading

Servers are expected to see several years' service and are designed to be upgraded.

6.1 You may need to upgrade your hardware.

  • Adding more RAM will improve the speed at which your network server responds (see 2.2).
  • You can add additional hard drives when you need more storage.
  • Adding processors will improve the performance of some applications.

6.2 You may need to upgrade your software.

Upgrading or changing network software may involve reconfiguring all the computers connected to the server.

  • You may occasionally need to update your network operating system.
