内容説明
TO: All network managers, LAN supervisors, users of NetWare/286, NetWare/386 and NetWare version 4. RE: NetWare LANS: Performance and Troubleshooting 1. ISSUES: * Is the reliability of your PC LAN important to your organization's efficiency? * Would you like to know how to successfully maintain your PC LAN? * Does it cost you and your organization valuable resources, like time and money, when your PC LAN has problems? * Would you like to be able to troubleshoot, to take proactive corrective measures, to avoid 'firefighting?' * Would you like to learn from past experiences? 2. RECOMMENDATION - The book, NetWare LANs: Performance and Troubleshooting , because it: * Provides a logical and structured approach to LAN performance and troubleshooting with emphasis on ensuring reliability * Explores how to monitor the network to identify potential problems * Explains what actions should be taken before problems arise and why * Provides techniques for ensuring that service to the user is provided * Provides forms and database structures for implementing a fault-recording system so that the experiences of earlier troubleshooting can be easily accessed 3.
OTHER CONSIDERATIONS - Author Formerly the director of strategy and technical monitor for Azlan, one of the largest and longest established UK distributors for Novell, Ian Theakston now runs his own network consultancy company. In addition to writing books on LAN performance and troubleshooting, he is known to have played the double-bass in a performance of Mahler's 2nd Symphony in Durham Cathedral.
