Server 2008 R2 SP1, BitLocker to go, image restore, Unexpected results

On Svr 2008 R2 SP1, I wanted to test backup and image restore with a Bitlocker encrypted USB disk. Here's what I did:
I turned on encryption on the USB disk, Chose password method and set it to auto-unlock on this computer.
Ran a full system backup with the encrypted USB disk as the destination.
Plugged the USB disk into another computer. Confirmed that it did require a password before I could access it.
Now for the restore test. I booted the R2 computer from the Windows 2008 R2 SP1 setup DVD and chose the repair computer option.
I plugged in the encrypted USB disk (can't remember if I did this before or after booting from the DVD).
When choosing an image to restore, it could not find any.
I got a pop-up saying that I needed to enter a key to be able to access the USB disk. 
I wanted to simulate not having the key (only the password), so I cancelled out of that window.
I went to the command prompt and entered >manage-bde -unlock E: -pw
After entering the password, I exited the command window and went back to restore an image.
It found backup image on the encrypted USB disk and I chose to do a full system restore. The restore was successful.
I later tried to restore from the same USB disk again using the same method was surprised because it did not ask for a key or a password this time. The second restore was also successful.
Then, after booting up the restore R2 machine, I  noticed that the USB disk no longer had bit locker turned ON. It looked like it was not encrypted anymore.
I plugged the disk into another computer and it did NOT require a password to access it there either.
Now,  after all of the above, Here's my Question. How did the disk become decrypted? I don't remember it going thru any decryption process (that seems to take while).
Did it decrypt automatically during the first restoration? 
Note (don't know if this is related): later I reformatted the USB disk twice. Each time I plugged back into the R2 machine and it want to repair the disk and after it did, the files returned. I had to go to the disk manager and remove the partition
to get it to stop doing that.  
No big deal. My test was successful but I am confused as to how the USB was decrypted.
Thanks for any light anyone can shed on this.

Hi,
From your description, I don’t see any chance that the USB disk could be decrypted. We can only decrypt the disk via UI or manage-bde
–off.
In addition, decrypting a disk might take several hours. It could not be decrypted without any notification.
According to the above, I suggest checking if there was any mis-operation. Also, please do more tests and check if the issue can be reproduced.
Thanks.

  • Unable to Install Windows Server 2012 on Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 Hyper-V

    My attempts to install are failing with a message "Windows cannot install required files. The file may be corrupt or missing....Error code: 0x800705070".
    I am posting this on the Wondows 2012 Server forum but I have had exactly the same problem as described below with Windows 2008 R2 SP1.
    As the title says this is on a Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 host with all current updates. I have downloaded the ISO file from a Technet subscription file twice, once by direct download and once by the Akamai downloader. The virtual disk is connected with
    the default IDE driver. I mounted both installation images as ISOs, located on a file system on the host server.  I have tried installs by deleting the VM and recreating both the VM and a new virtual disk, re-using a previously created virtual disk, and
    deleting the partitions in a previously created virtual disk, and executing the format command, and then attempting the install.
    I have exactly the same problem trying to create a Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 VM on the same host OS.  With those attempts, I downloaded the Technet subscription iso 4 or 5 times, and burned one to a DVD which I attached to the created VM.  Same
    error message.
    The virtual machines and virtual disks I created and used were all located on an RAID5 array, on a builtin Intel RAID controller using Intel Rapid Storage Technology software version 11.2.0.1066.  The host Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 uses this file system
    but the OS is installed on a dedicated drive (C).
    I had previously created a guest VM with Windows Server 2008 R2 (several months worth of updates ago) without drama.
    I have spent hours reading forums and blog articles on this.  A common response is to download the iso another time, and/or burn it to a DVD instead of mounting an iso image. Although I didn't do the later yet with 2012 Server, but I have done these
    other steps attempting to install Windows 2008 Server SP1. The install process takes a while (not to mention doing multiple downloads). Given this seems to be a common recommended remedy, and indeed based on posts does seem to eliminate the problem is some
    cases, why doesn't somebody change the Microsoft installer program so it does a thorough integrity check at the beginning of the install process?

    Jeff,
    After the exercise of Windows 2012 Server successfully installing (as I described above) I also successfully installed Windows 2008 R2 on Hyper-V.  From my standpoint, I have eliminated the problem (which isn't the same as correcting the problem).
    The answer to your specific question regarding Hyper-V support is that the motherboard I am using, an Asus P5Q, is not supported by Windows 2008 R2 because it doesn't use ECC memory, and the vendor doesn't say it supports Windows 2008. But I am sure you
    know the motherboard vendors often don't test older motherboards with newer software versions.  It appears that in specifying ECC memory Microsoft is trying to protect users of Windows Server from hurting themselves, not saying the software won't run.
    Having said that, my suspicion in the beginning was, and still is, that it was some variable(s) left in an unknown state in the Hyper-V environment, which was why after trying to install Windows 2008 R2 several times I tried Windows 2012 which resulted in
    the same error, and then encountered the same error trying to install Windows 7 on the same Hyper-V installation. The specific Hyper-V Windows 2008 R2 server had run without any operating problems for months before I started having trouble, and although it
    had been quite a while since I had created VMs, that process used to work.  The hardware didn't change. What changed was applying updates through Microsoft Update, and a few access control rights I changed, and at least I think, I set back to their original
    value.
    So in short, no, my hardware isn't supported by Windows 2008 Server.  Two, your assertion that you are running the same software configuration that I am is very unlikely to be true. There are an extremely large number of things which are different between
    your test system and mine, such as which Windows 2008 components are installed, what updates were installed and in what order they were installed, and what other third party software each of us is running, and between AD, and all the features, a large number
    of potential differences in ACLs, options, etc. and I don't for a minute think this particular problem was caused by the underlying hardware.
    I do appreciate your taking the time to try to help me, and I hope there is one thing you and I could agree on. Microsoft could pretty easily make it much easier to isolate problems. In this day and age reporting hex error codes (as opposed to doing the
    table lookup in the error handling proc), and not providing more diagnostic information seems to me to be almost quaint.  And in this case Microsoft can dismiss my problems on the grounds it was all on unsupported hardware. Unfortunately, I think they
    are missing an opportunity to make their software better, because in my opinion what I encountered there are a set of conditions which will cause installations to fail that aren't going to get corrected.

  • How to install bo xi 3.1 on windows server 2008 r2 sp1 (virtual machine )

    HI GUYS --
    operating system: I am trying to install Business Objects into a virtual  computer which has a windows server 2008 R2 SP1 operating system. I installed version BO XI 3.1 and I also installed Service pack 3 and Service pack 4. I installed liveoffice usual way. Whenever I try to design  xcelsius and dashboard, I got some errors. In order to fix these errors, I followed SAP notes step by step. However, It didnt help me at all. I also tried to install by looking at install guide and supported platform documents, but I get an error each time of doing that. I can write each error over here. I also opened a link over here. Check out the link please to see the errors how to display webi docs. in liveoffice?
    My main question is this.
    Are there anybody who works operating system windows server 2008 R2 SP1 and this installed into the virtual machine? If so, Is it worked by doing which installations exactly?
    Note; Business Objects tools work very well (infoview, cmc, web intelligencei and the others work  without problems at QAAWS BO XI 3.1, but they have been given cluster error at BO XI 3.1 SP3) . In addition, port server settings have been installed based on the installion guide. If you give me any information other than whatever I said, I appreciate that. I also point out something. If I dont get any message which I attached a sample when I try to operate life office. In this situation I cant see either my documets or web documents in infoview)

    Hi SYaGCi,
    Denis is right this is actually documented in the Supported Platforms Documentation:
    "Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 are new platform support additions in Service Pack 3 which are only available for support on the SP3 full release install of SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise. The SP3 patch only release of SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise does not provide support for these two new platforms."
    Kind regards,
    John

  • Post upgrade from Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 to Windows Server 2012 R2

    Hi, I'm not sure if I've done something wrong or if i lack some steps.
    We have an existing server having Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 as OS, DC, and DNS. I had to upgrade it based on global standards so I upgraded it into Windows Server 2012 R2.
    What I did was an online upgrade, insert the DVD installation disc and it asked for a adprep for forest and domain.
    I did both forest and domain adprep and installation continued. After reboot, it showed up errors on my local server. Please see image below:
    and when i clicked each roles under Manageability, it shows me
    Is there something I need to do to fix these red marks?
    Regards,
    Jeff

    These are the logs i've seen inside Custom Views>Server Roles>AD DS, DNS Server, and Administrative Events respectively.

    Please help As i am running out of time as i have to upgrade TFS for that first step is to install SQL server.

    Hello,
    The following are a few things you can try:
    Copy the media to the local disk drive, unzip it (in case you are installing from an ISO file, and run SQL Server setup from there.
    Try to unregister and register the Windows Installer with the following two commands:
    msiexec /unregister
    msiexec /regserver
    Try to use Process Monitor to log the detailed error produced when the installation of dw20sharedamd64.msi fails. You can download Process Monitor from the following link:
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896645
    Share with us the error captured by Process Monitor.
    Hope this helps.

  • Oracle 11g R2 install problem on Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1

    Hi all,
    Trying to install the Oracle 11g R2 database onto Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1.
    I get as far as running the setup and a black window flashes up on the screen and disappears.
    The log files only show the following:

    I've tried running setup -debug from the command line but no further information is logged.
    Any help in troubleshooting further is appreciated.

    That is the complete log file. No error messages or further information is given.
    I'm not sure how to check:

    The server meets all the hardware requirements. The default file share is accessible and it is running a supported browser. The installer is being run with Admin rights. I'm not sure what else I need to check.

  • Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 - BSOD Stop Error 0x00000050 RDPWD.SYS

    Hi all,
    I have been struggling with a BSOD for the past 5 weeks and have scoured the web trying in vain to find someone else with the same issue.
    Environment:
    8 x 2008 R2 SP1 Windows Servers (8Gb RAM, 25Gb HDD) with Remote Desktop Services Roles installed, running as part of an RDS Farm.  All Servers are VM Guests (hardware version 7) running on VMware vSphere v4.1.0-260247 Hosts (Dell
    PowerEdge R710 - 128Gb RAM).  Our vSphere 'farm' has 5 Hosts that connect to our EMC SAN via iSCSI with multipath routes. 
    Each RDS Server is load balanced via a Connection Broker, and each server has the same set of software / vm hardware installed.  In a nutshell, each has Symantec Endpoint Protection v11.0.5002.333, Symantec Altiris v7.0, Microsoft Office 2007 as well as
    other various software essential to these servers.
    Symptoms:
    Randomly throughout the day, one (or more) of the RDS Servers will crash with a BSOD more often than not with "caused by driver ntoskrnl.exe" sometimes with "cng.sys" and once with "ksecpkg.sys".  So far in the 5 weeks I have had 90 crashes.  Yesterday
    all 8 of the RDS Servers crashed at some point throughout the day.
    On a typical BSOD, it says:
    The problem seems to be caused by the following file: ntoskrnl.exe
    PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA
    Technical Information:
    *** STOP: 0x00000050 (0xfffffa800c153284, 0x0000000000000001, 0xfffff880053dc0c9, 0x0000000000000000)
    *** ntoskrnl.exe - Address 0xfffff8000169ac40 base at 0xfffff8000161e000 DateStamp 0x4e02aaa3
    Using BlueScreenView it says "caused by address: ntoskrnl.exe+7cc40" nearly every time.
    I have analysed as best I could using Microsoft WinDbg, and this is the output of a typical mini-dump file:

    The RDS servers are set to reboot automatically, and after a period of 5 minutes or so, the users can reconnect and log back in.  On a typical day each server will have around 10 people RDP'd in to them.
    The Users connecting to the RDS Servers included XP laptops/desktops and IGEL UD-120-LX Thin Terminals.  The XPs have SP3 installed and are fully patched via Symantec Altiris.
    Things I have tried:
    - Analyse the dump-files (as per above).
    - I have tracked each user logging on to the RDS Farm (via batch scripts) and tried to determine if this is caused by the same individual(s) but it appears random.
    - Check to see if the crashing Virtual Machine is running on a specific host, but it has happened on all Hosts.
    - Check to see if there was anything specific that happened on the day that the crashes started.  There were about 5 new poeple introduced to the RDS Farm at that time, but there were using (a) client machines that had been used previously elsewhere with
    no issues, (b) software that had been used previously, (c) in a remote location that had previous users using RDS, (d) have not been logged on to a RDS Server when it has crashed.
    - Updated Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 to the latest patches (as of Feb 2012).
    - Turned on Verifier (using recommended settings), and then analysed dump-files with the same reference to rdpwd.sys.
    - Fixed the Memory Resource Reservation in vSphere to the full 8Gb for all these RDS Servers (so that the memory is not shared at all).
    - Ran MEMTEST on a VM Guest with the full 8Gb RAM, on a couple of the ESX Hosts.
    - Changed the VMTools Video Driver to the SVGA II driver from the Standard VGA Driver.
    - Ran a full AV Scan (using SEP).
    - Isolated the Printer Drivers using the Printer Management MMC.
    - Ran sfc /scannow of all RDS Servers and rebooted.
    The mini-dump file mentioned above is here:https://skydrive.live.com/redir.aspx?cid=48f471f287af2349&resid=48F471F287AF2349!105&parid=48F471F287AF2349!103
    I hope someone can help, as what hair I have left (from pulling it out) is turning grey!

  • Unable to reinstall WSUS on air-gapped Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 server

    A co-worker installed WSUS on an air-gapped (not connected to the Internet) server running Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1, but he wasn't sure he'd configured everything properly, and asked me to uninstall and reinstall it.  The uninstallation went without
    a hitch, but reinstalling through the Server Manager gives the error message "The update could not be found.  There may be a network connection issue."  The Server Manager log shows the following:

    Hi,
    0x8024402C WU_E_PT_WINHTTP_NAME_NOT_RESOLVED
    Winhttp SendRequest/ReceiveResponse failed with 0x2ee7 error. Either the proxy server or target server name cannot be resolved. Corresponding to ERROR_WINHTTP_NAME_NOT_RESOLVED.
    Stop/Restart service or reboot the machine if you see this error frequently.
    Since the server is not connect to the internet, at least it should have an available upstream server. Did you configure it correctly? The error message indicate that the
    name could not resolved, make sure you can resolve the name of the upstream server. Run nslookup check the result.
    If it is the only WSUS, then give it internet connection and test.
    Hope this helps.

    Hi,
    You can install SQL server express 2008 on machine having SQL Server 2008 r2 is supported. From what you posted I guess SQL server 2008 r2 is default instance so you need to install SQL server 2008 express SP1 as named instance. Your error matches problem
    mentioned in below thread
    http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/sqlserver/en-US/1e8cfab3-4b99-4b4d-82bf-97799dabe34c/failure-when-installing-from-command-prompt-config-file?forum=sqlexpress
    If issue is not solved please post complete  log files from location

  • Getting error while trying to install ADRMS role on Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1.

    Hello,
    I am trying to install ADRMS on Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 (This machine also has domain controller and Exchange Server 2010 SP3 installed). But I am getting following error:
    Install-ADRMS : The configuration object is read only, because it has been committed by a call to ServerManager.CommitChanges().
    If write access is required, use ServerManager to get a new reference.    at Microsoft.Web.Administration.Configuration.SetDirty()
    Not sure what is causing this error. Any help to solve it would be appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Install-ADRMS : The configuration object is read only, because it has been committed by a call to ServerManager.CommitChanges().
    If write access is required, use ServerManager to get a new reference.    at Microsoft.Web.Administration.Configuration.SetDirty()
    Not sure what is causing this error. Any help to solve it would be appreciated.
    Thanks.

  • Server 2008 R2 SP1 - Software install - Error 1935 HRESULT:0x800736B5

    I'm working on an error installing a product on Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 machines. The server has been acting as a file server for months with no problems. The application requires .net 3.5 and .net 4 client profile to be installed. I'm able to pass the
    prerequists portion of the installation but eventually the software halts near completion with the error
    Error: 1935.An error occurred during the installation of assembly component {106BBB06-46FA-8A99-8361C13A0C}.
    HRESULT: 0x800736B5.
    I've found a couple articles that reference this article
    http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_vista-windows_programs/error-1935an-error-occurred-during-the/7105ee7e-ab45-4bd2-b5db-a3e9002f7f9e , which I've tried with no success.
    The other article I found was

    The weird thing about this error is that I cant find anything useful from the event viewer. Does anyone have any thoughts on this?
    Thank you in advance!

    Hi,
    Thanks for posting in the forum.
    Before going further, would you please let me know what the product you want to install on the server is? At this time, you could try to disable the anti-virus program first if it is installed
    on the server. Then please try to reinstall the two version of .Net Framework and Visual C++ 2005 / 2008 Redistributable Package to see if the issue could be resolved.
    Hope this helps.
    Best Regards,
    Andy Qi

  • Is WMF3 or WMF4 supported in Exchange 2010 SP3 UR5 installed on Server 2008 R2 SP1?

    We'd like to upgrade WMF (aka powershell) on our Exchange 2010 servers but I haven't been able to find any updated information on support with the most recent servicepack/update rollup.
    Is installing WMF3 or WMF4 supported on Server 2008 R2 SP1 w/ Exchange 2010 SP3 UR5?

    WindowsPowerShell 3.0 is supported. Haven't seen 4.0 running for exchange 2010 on 2008 R2

    Gulab,
    Where did you read that WMF3 is supported on Exchange 2010 SP3 on Server 2008 R2?
    Neither of the links you pasted suggest that and in fact explicitly say "There has been no testing with ExchangeServer 2010 SP3 and WMF 3.0 installed on Windows Server 2008 R2."
    My Bad, that was TYPO...

  • Resore SQL server 2008 SP3 database to SQL server 2008 R2 SP1

    I have a dump from a SQL server 2008 SP3 server and I'm trying to restore it to SQL server 2008 R2 SP1 server but getting the error:
    Msg 3241, Level 16, State 0, Line 2
    The media family on device 'E:\Work\backup.bak0' is incorrectly formed. SQL Server cannot process this media family.
    Msg 3013, Level 16, State 1, Line 2
    RESTORE FILELIST is terminating abnormally.
    Are these versions incompatible or is it just a problem with the file? If they are incompatible, I could upgrade my target server to SQL server 2008 R2 SP2, would this help?
    The exact version info is as follows:
    Source server: Microsoft SQL Server 2008 (SP3) - 10.0.5500.0 (X64)   Sep 21 2011 22:45:45   Copyright (c) 1988-2008 Microsoft Corporation  Standard Edition (64-bit) on Windows NT 5.2 <X64> (Build 3790: Service Pack 2)
    Target Server:  Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2 (RTM) - 10.50.1617.0 (X64)   Apr 22 2011 19:23:43   Copyright (c) Microsoft Corporation  Developer Edition (64-bit) on Windows NT 6.1 <X64> (Build 7601: Service Pack 1)
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    SQL server 2008 SP3 is technically a lower version than 2008 R2 SP1
    but it was released after it.
    The service packs release date don't matter, only the major+minor build versions are important; restore should work in your constellation.
    During FTP transfer the file could be damaged, that's possible. The backup file could be also "blocked" by OS because it was download from a different server; then you have to unblock it like every other download file.
