"Server Busy Switch to" error pauses the Que

[ICallMyHPLCYoda]

Running a Waters HPLC set up utilizing MassLynx, we have large amount of samples to process so must run the instrument over night, however, we keep getting an error that states:

"Server Busy
This action cannot be completed because the other program is busy. Choose 'Switch To' to activate the busy program and correct the program"

We have attempted several solutions with false hope, however this error continues to pause the que interrupting sample run time, and putting us behind. Hoping someone has had a similar issue and found a solution.
Yes we have tried turning it off and back on again with no luck!
Thank you for any advice!

If you're in a Citrix environment, this message usually pops up when there is a hung process associated with the session. Log off of the Citrix server in hopes that this will clear the process. If not, someone w/ server desktop access will have to clear it for you.

If one particular action tends to cause this, avoid said action (things like continuously monitoring your entire run on a PC).

If that's not it, make sure you don't have an antivirus program scanning your data or application folders.

This nice dialog shows .NET virtual machine when your application main loop responds too slow.

Now-mainstream .NET applications are run by executing bytecode (like Java) but in Microsoft way (their own bytecode virtual machine with Mahjong and geishas).

Remember the well known citation "640 Kb would be enough to all".

Since the days of yore Windows machine performance depends linearly from amount of RAM installed.

Because you can not recomplie your .NET into native code (or can with the bunch of spells and ngen) - the only resort - add more RAM and free your disk and remove antivirus software.
