Faced with a project deploying a hundred or so NT file servers across North America with their associated infrastructure of domain controllers and WINS servers, one of the questions that leaps to mind is how to do capacity management on an ongoing basis. What does one measure, how often and how? While tools are 'in the works' from many vendors, there were few available in the early '96 project time frame. This paper describes how the performance measures available from Windows NT can be combined with other tools such as Microsoft Visual Test and SAS to collect a measurement data base to support ongoing capacity management. Recommended sets of measurement objects and counters are reviewed along with the capacity thresholds that can be used to trigger planning for upgrades or workload adjustments.

Providing support to departments that have linked to the campus network is a major challenge facing educational institutions. Once a department is connected there are many issues to deal with. Who provides support? What level of support? Centralized or distributed support? This question is further complicated by the autonomous nature and diversity of departments on a given campus. This paper will discuss the approach taken by The Ohio State University's Academic Technology Services (ATS) to provide network support to the numerous and diverse departments on campus. Considering the size of The Ohio State University, 50,000+ students, 4,500+ faculty and 18,000 staff scattered over 102 departments, this is no small task. Formerly, ATS provided support to departments though first-level consultation. In other words, if a professor could not make his computer connect to the network he called ATS and talked to a consultant. This worked fine as long as the number of computers on campus was relatively small. But in the last 24 months, the number of network connected computers on campus has increased dramatically causing the number of consultation calls to likewise increase. This, combined with the growing number of people making use of the Internet through the campus network, meant that the support issue needed to be rethought at The Ohio State University. The solution was to provide second-level support centrally while assisting and encouraging departments to develop first-level support. The first-level support person would be known as the departmental network administrator (DNA). How would the DNAs be supported? In order to answer this question, we went to the DNAs themselves to see what their needs actually were. Several DNAs were interviewed representing a cross-section of departments from small to large. As a result it was decided to develop an on-line handbook using gopher. The DNA gopher was developed jointly by Brent Curtiss of The Ohio State University (enrollment 50

This paper describes the issues concerning service mobility support in a distributed system which facilitates the development of distributed personal communications applications using independently-developed autonomous network servers. The authors mean by service mobility, the capability of the system to hide server interface specifics from the clients by a generic service acquisition mechanism, and to ensure the clients continued access to services despite server access failure and terminal, server and/or user mobility. The system's architecture can be mapped onto emerging and future public intelligent network architectures, such as Bellcore's Information networking Architecture (INA) and Telecommunications INformation networking Architecture (TINA), which is an international effort.

The demand for computing resources to support design automation systems is growing dramatically due to VLSI design considerations. This demand has created a need for multiple computing systems to handle the escalated execution requirements of today's Design Automation tools. A distribution technique for executing such tools on multiple computing systems is discussed. The technique employs the definition of three execution modes: interactive foreground, dissociative foreground and batch. Cost and performance considerations are analyzed as they relate to the overall design automation system as well as individual job executions. An implementation of this technique is presented, including the treatment of common system interface, data management, and job submission techniques.
