I just fired up the capacity planning tool that’s all the rage these days.

Našao sam ga jednostavan za korištenje i brzo po uzoru klijenta okruženje sam radio na ovom prošlog ljeta.

S nekim strahom, Ja pritisne konačnu tipku OK i to preporučeno nešto što je prilično slično onome što mi je dao naš klijent (we actually threw in a second application server for future excel use). I take that to be a good sign and increases my confidence in the tool.

It seems pretty powerful stuff a much better starting point than a blank page.

I like that lets you get into some good detail about the environment. How many users, how you project they will use the system (publishing, collaboration, itd.), branch office and connectivity / network capacity between them and the mama server. Good stuff.

It asks broad based questions and then lets you tweak the details for a pretty granular model of your environment.

I hesitated downloading it because I have so many other things to look at it, read and try to digest. I’m glad I did.

It’s an easy two-step process. Download system center capacity planner and then download the SharePoint models. It runs nicely on Windows XP.

Based on my quick impression, I don’t see how it might account for:

• Traži: Total documents, maybe types of documents, languages.
• Excel server: how much, if at all?
• Forms server: how much, if at all?
• BDC: how much, if at all.

Those may be modeled and I just didn’t see them in the 10 minute review.

I will definitely use it at my next client.

If I were not a consultant and instead working for a real company :), I’d model my current environment and see how the tool’s recommended model matches up against reality. That would be pretty neat. It could lead to some good infrastructure discussion.
