Re: Router Job in Domino subsystem

["Dave Guerrero" <dguerrero@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

If you have any mail that will need to move through that Domino server to
another Domino server (whether mail files exist or not), you will need to
keep the router task running.  Although you didn't say it, most likely you
are doing SMTP mail routing which in R5 is also handled by the router task.
Moving the SMTP routing to a different Domino server should help alleviate
the CPU percentage.

Another possible impact is the amount of memory on the 170 and whether or
not you run other applications on it.  You did mention that you are serving
a web site from the same server.  The HTTP task on Domino also uses a lot
of resources.  Just from past experience, R5 does use more resources than
R4 did.  Hope this helps...

Is the Router job in the Domino (R5.0.3) subsystem referring to mail
routing, or is this something different?
If we move mail routing off a box, will we see this job disappear?  The
reason I ask is that we're using a 170 (V4R4M0) to handle both web serving
and mail routing, and the Router task generally has 22% of the CPU at all
times, and often has around 40% since we upgraded to R5.  We'd like to
shift mail routing to another box, as this is killing our ability to serve
our website.

Thanks in advance,
