One question: Is there now a firewall between the AR server and the database server? This can have a huge impact on performance, especially if the firewall is a modern packet-inspection type. I know you said they are in the same datacenter but that doesn't mean they are on the same subnet. Even if they are on the same subnet, if a router is between them and it is throttling bandwidth that can cause issues. The best way, IMHO, to connect two servers in a Remedy environment is through a network switch or, if possible, direct connection.

Just last week we have migrated to new architecture, earlier we had Mid-tier/ARS and DB on same HPUX machine. Which usually takes 1.5 mins to start all Remedy processes. But now we have a separate machine for DB out side ARS machine but local to network(in same datacenter). Now it takes 20 mins to start. When we start first four processes starts at a glance as follows: root 14001 13998 0 Apr 22 ? 0:00 /remedy/software/ARSystem/reconcile/bin/arrecond -s euxa91 -i / root 14003 13998 0 Apr 22 ? 0:01 /remedy/software/ARSystem/bin/arservapd -s euxa91 -i /remedy/so root 14004 13998 16 Apr 22 ? 609:05 /remedy/software/ARSystem/bin/arserverd -s euxa91 -i /remedy/so root 13998 1 0 Apr 22 ? 0:00 /remedy/software/ARSystem/bin/armonitor -s euxa91 -c /etc/arsys But rest of the following takes 20 mins to start with. root 18921 13998 0 Apr 22 ? 1:09 /remedy/software/ARSystem/bin/arplugin -s euxa91 -i /remedy/sof root 18919 13998 0 Apr 22 ? 0:00 /remedy/software/ARSystem/bin/arsvcdsp -s euxa91 -d /remedy/sof root 18920 13998 0 Apr 22 ? 1:35 /remedy/software/ARSystem/bin/arservdsd -s euxa91 -i /remedy/so root 18909 14004 0 Apr 22 ? 0:01 /remedy/software/ARSystem/bin/arforkd -s euxa91 -l /remedy/soft root 18012 1 0 10:39:01 ? 0:00 sh -c /remedy/software/ARSystem/sla/bin/brsvcbrie root 18013 18012 23 10:39:01 ? 29:32 /remedy/software/ARSystem/sla/bin/brsvcbrie ARSystem is quite trivial and frequent at server level, hence we can't afford this much of delay which leads to outage. Please advice ASAP. Will be very grateful to you.
