Mani, the quality of the answer you get here is directly proportional to the information you provide. Very vague questions get very vague answers.
What is the make and model of your server and what version of OS are you running? What is the server being used for? What "slowless" are you seeing?

Hi,
how can we define performance of a server (Windows or Unix or Linux) ?
If processes waiting for CPU (on queue) are usually more than 3 or 5 can we conclude that CPU is not enough for that usage ?
Thank you. (1 Reply)

faxanswer
FAXANSWER(8) System Manager's Manual FAXANSWER(8)
NAME
faxanswer - tell a HylaFAX server to answer the telephone
SYNOPSIS
/usr/sbin/faxanswer [ -q queue-dir ] [ -h how ] modem
DESCRIPTION
faxanswer sends a message to the HylaFAX faxgetty(8) process servicing modem telling it to answer the telephone. This is useful, for exam-
ple, when a modem is used on a shared phone line and the server is configured to not normally answer the phone.
The specified modem can either be the name (typically the last component of the terminal port the modem is attached to), or the full name
of the associated FIFO named pipe file, e.g. ``FIFO.ttym2''.
OPTIONS
-q dir Use a spooling area other than /var/spool/hylafax.
-h Specify exactly how the phone should be answered. By default, the server process is instructed to answer the phone and accept
any kind of call (voice, data, fax). Discrimination of the type of call is dependent on a modem's adaptive-answer support. The
-h option can be used to force the server to answer the phone for particular type of call: one of fax, data, voice, any, extern
(to force faxgetty to invoke an external application to to handle the call), or dialX (where X is a dialstring to dial before
initiating a fax reception). If using dialX, the specified dialstring will likely need to end with a semicolon (``;'').
FILES
/var/spool/hylafax default spooling area
/var/spool/hylafax/FIFO fifo for contacting faxq
Consult hylafax-server(5) for a complete discussion of the structure and content of the spooling area.
