1. Setting for onboard LAN controller on Windows Server 2003 or Windows Server 2003 x64
[IMPORTANT]
When the server runs on Windows Server 2003 or Windows Server 2003 x64, the onboard LAN controller
may not work properly (*) with some applications. To avoid the symptom, make sure to disable the TCP
Chimney Offload setting by following the instruction below.
1. Start Windows Server 2003 or Windows Server 2003 x64.
2. Select [Start] - [Run] and type in "cmd" to activate the command prompt.
3. Enter the following command on the command prompt and press <ENTER>
4. Dialog box [OK] displays when the change is completed.
(You do not need to restart the server after this command.)
* Example of the cases where the LAN controller does not work properly.
1) When the data transfer is performed through FTP.
1-1 "426 Connection Closed; transfer aborted" is displayed.
1-2 The FTP connection is disconnected and the data cannot be transferred through FTP.
2) When an application that connects to SQL Server by using TCP/IP is used, you may intermittently
receive one of the following error messages when the application connects to SQL Server.
2-1 [Microsoft] [ODBC SQL Server Driver] [DBNETLIB] General Network error
Refer to the network manuals in this case.
2-2 [Microsoft] [SQL Native Client] Communication link failure

the server.

[Symptom]
When all the connection described later are met, the warning message below may be recorded on
the Application Event Log upon the startup of the server.
[Conditions]

2) The system is highly-loaded during startup.
[Cause] The heavy load during the system startup causes the delay in the processing to initialize
ServerView Remote Connector. This warning message is to report that the service startup is not
completed within the certain period of time, and not that the service startup has failed.
