Server 2008 sp2 freezes during DPM 2010 volume shadow backup

Hi All,
We have a hyperv guest server 2008 sp2 that freezes during DPM 2010 volume shadow backup.
I presume this is when backing up SQL databases. There are no errors in the event logs.
The sequense of entries in the System event are as follows up until the server freezes.
1) The DPMRA service entered the running state.
2) The Volume Shadow Copy service entered the running state.
3) DCOM started the service swprv with arguments "" in order to run the server:
{65EE1DBA-8FF4-4A58-AC1C-3470EE2F376A}
4) The Microsoft Software Shadow Copy Provider service entered the running state.
After this the entries stop and the new entries are from after reboot.
You cannot send control-alt-delete or connect to the server in any way.
Only hard reboot gets it going again.This is the only server this is happening to.
Please advise if anybody has experienced this and how they resolved.
Maybe I require a Hotfix.

This looks similar to what I'm seeing.
DPM 2010, there's one backup set (for me a file server disk) that every time I try to run the initial replica on it the server hangs and needs to be rebooted by iLO. It doesn't just die suddenly, first the data stream on the backup stops then the OS becomes
less responsive but there is no resource issue. trying to open event view will cause a few things to lock up then over a few mins the server is complete froze. like the disk drives have been locked.
Suspecting McAfee, I added in all the exclusions, that didn't help so I added the process exclusions which are done by setting dpmra and csc to low risk and that didn't help either. I could reproduce it just by kicking off a backup for this one file servers
drive so it's easy to test with.
Tonight, I had some permissions in EPO to let me stop the scanning completely and disable the on-access scan and for the first time it worked!
There is definitely an issue between DPM and McAfee beyond what is on MS's web page for AV checks.
I don't have a workaround yet other than stopping the AV completely... Something to follow up on next week. For the moment I made some progress though.

Windows Server 2008 SP2 X86 Product Key Issue

I am trying to create a VM using a Template, but facing an issue with respect to Product Key. The VHD I am using is of
Windows Server 2008 SP2 X86. If I do not provide Product Key in the Template/Guest OS Profile, the Virtual Machine creation fails even before starting. Seeing this behavior, I added a dummy key to the Guest OS Profile/Template which allowed
me to deploy the machine, but the VM gets stuck at Customization before failing. When I take the remote console of the VM, the Error I see at the Remote Console is:
Windows could not parse or process the unattend answer file for pass. The settings specified in the answer files cannot be applied. The error was detected while processing settings for component [microsoft-windows-shell-setup]"
So, I am confused now what to do.
Is dummy key supported?
Do I need to provide the actual key in the Template/Guest OS Profile?

You should be able to evaluate this software for 180 days.

Windows Server 2008 SP2 randomly reboots due to lsass.exe failed with status code 255

Hello,
Any help on this issue would be greatly appreciated. I have an older Windows Server 2008 SP2 (I don't believe it is R2) (running SQL Server 2008 and SSRS 2008 on the machine) that is crashing randomly
during business hours. Looking into the event logs, I have found the following:
Faulting application lsass.exe, version 6.0.6002.18541, time stamp 0x4ec3ca01, faulting module msvcrt.dll, version 7.0.6002.18551, time stamp 0x4ee8d118, exception code 0xc0000005, fault offset 0x00000000000011ad, process id 0x284, application start

I found a Hot Fix for a similar issue (https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/2732595?wa=wsignin1.0), but it appeared to only be applicable to Windows Server 2008 R2 and Windows 7.
A few hours later, the crash happened again, with a slightly different error:
The system process 'C:\Windows\system32\lsass.exe' terminated unexpectedly with status code -1073741819. The system will now shut down and restart.

A critical system process, C:\Windows\system32\lsass.exe, failed with status code c0000005. The machine must now be restarted.
The security package Kerberos generated an exception. The exception information is the data
I have been unable to find a reason for these exceptions and the server rebooting. Any thoughts or ideas on how I can correct this error so it doesn't reboot our server again? .

Evenlog viewing causes CPU usage 100% on Windows server 2008 SP2

We have Windows server 2008 SP2 with strange behaviour. When I scroll down events in eventlog viewer CPU usage hits 100% and eventlog viewer freeze. CPU usage is split between 2 processes SVCHOST.EXE (lmhosts, eventlog and Dhcp services) and MMC.EXE.
1)I tried to replace eventlog files with new ones. That didn’t helped
2)After server clean boot problem still exist.
3)When CPU hits 100% usage process explorer shows that from SVCHOST.EXE process CPU is used by service EventLog.
Any ideas how to fix this?

Hi Santosh
I re-installed VMware
tools and also configured VMXNET 3 - nothing changed :(
Sorry to hear that.
Windows event log service has couple of dependencies i.e. task scheduler and windows event collector service. Can try restrating those services ?
In addition to above, try following steps
Change NTFS permission of %WINDIR%\System32\WinEvt\Logs directory, add Local Service and
Network Service, give them FULL permissions.
Stop and Start event viewer service by running following command
net stop eventlog && net start eventlog
Issues like this might occur if the disk (FC or iSCSI SAN or even NAS) has some inconsistencies , this is true in case of both physical and virtual machines
You might want to try running chkdisk as well on the server in question

If nothing helps, try inplace upgrade of the Operating system as an last option.

Server 2008 SP2 hangs at Applying Registry Policy

I have a VM with Server 2008 SP2 (32bit) that hangs when we try to log in. If I uncheck the network adapter property "Connect at power on" within VMware I can log on with no problem. The moment I connect the network it hangs upon boot up. I have
tried to look through the Event Viewer, but nothing obvious is jumping out at me.
Regarding updates...none have been done in nearly three months, so I think that rules out updates as a culprit.
This server has two functions:
1 - MySQL
2 - Hosts one website
I have tried to run RSoP.msc when the network is not connected, but it just hangs. If I try to install anything (updated VMware Tools) or unistall something it just hangs. If I try to check services or disable services...it just hangs. All result in me having
no choice but to power it down without a graceful shutdown. I can boot into safemode with no problems, so hopefully there is something within that I can do.
Guidance would be appreciated, but we are preparing to build a new VM from scratch.
Rick

Is that a multihomed server? If yes, you might need to check the routing table content. You can also reset your TCP/IP stack: http://www.geeksinphoenix.com/blog/post/2010/12/03/Resetting-your-network-adapter-in-Windows-7.aspx
You need also to check that you using the correct DNS server: Please make sure that you have set only available and reachable DNS servers on the server itself while public DNS servers are configured as forwarders on your internal DNS servers.
As you can get inside the VM using Safe Mode, please check which updates were applied recently as that might point you to the problem.

Error While Creating Windows Server 2008 SP2 32-BIT Virtual Machine

I am facing an error while creating a Virtual Machine on the Cloud. The Error is below:
Error (610)
Virtual Machine Manager was unable to find a value for the required Sysprep parameter ProductKey.
Recommended Action
Add the missing Sysprep parameter either to the answer file or to the operating system configuration, and then try the operation again.
My Template does not have the Product Key defined. The OS is Windows Server 2008 SP2 32-BIT. Is defining Product Key absolutely necessary? I have other Templates for other Operating Systems and they are working fine. Only facing problem
with this.
Any help would be appreciated.

In the SCVMM world a 'template' is composed of the following: a VHD with an OS that has been generalized (sysprep), virtual hardware profile (settings), and an OS profile.
The OS profile is required to have a product key. A MAC activation key at the minimum. But the key is required.
If you deploy a VM from a VHD, the same customization assumptions are not at play. Which is why it succeeds. (there is no template in this case, there is also no requirement that the OS in the VHD be sysprep'd).
SCVMM has rules. And lots of things don't make sense until you begin to understand them and play within them. (I am not saying that the SCVMM rules are a good thing, just saying they exist)

Get-Hotfix InstalledOn property not returning hotfix installed Date and Time on Windows Server 2008 SP2 but works on Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1

Hi,
I am working on a validation script to get the list of hotfixes installed on Domain Controllers every month as part of our monthly DC patching process. I have been successful in getting these details for DC's with (Windows Server 2008
R2 SP1, Powershell v2.0) using the below command.
Get-HotFix -cn $computer | Select-Object PSComputerName,HotFixID,Description,InstalledBy,InstalledOn | where InstalledOn -ge (Get-Date -Day 1 -Format d) | FT -AutoSize
I execute the above from a jump box with powershell v4.0 (Server 2008 R2)
However, when I try the same command from the jump box to query DC's with (Server 2008 SP2, powershell v2.0). It doesn't return the InstalledOn date and time. It was giving error for the InstalledOn property and hence I renamed it to $_.InstalledOn. Now
I don't get error but still no details displayed for InstalledOn property.
I tried using the below, as could see on few forums that this might resolve the issue. I also tried removing the "where" part but still no installation date returned.
Get-HotFix -cn $computer | Select-Object HotFixID, Description, InstalledBy, @{l="InstalledOn";e={[DateTime]::Parse($_.psbase.properties["installedon"].value,$([System.Globalization.CultureInfo]::GetCultureInfo("en-US")))}}
| where {$_.InstalledOn -ge (Get-Date -Day 1 -Format d)} | FT -AutoSize
Have tried this locally on the 2008 SP2 DC but still not working. Please advise what is going wrong?
Note: If I execute the below command locally on the 2008 SP2 DC, I am getting the InstalledOn output. However, when executed from the jump box with powershell v4.0 (Server 2008 R2) to query
the same 2008 SP2 DC, it just gives the prompt again without any error or output. This behavior is consistent for other 2008 SP2 DC's in the environment.
Get-HotFix -cn $computer | Select-Object HotfixID,Description,InstalledBy,InstalledOn | where {$_.InstalledOn -ge (Get-Date -Day 1 -Format d)} | FT -AutoSize

Hi jrv, I have already tried the Win32_QuickFixEngineering option, which doesn't work either. Apologies for not mentioning the workarounds that I have already tried.
Get-Hotfix seems to be just a wrapper for Win32_QuickFixEngineering as per the below article. (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh849836.aspx)
I have seen a mention of using the WU ActiveX control on few forums, but was too lazy to read it through.
After rigorous testing, it makes me realize that somewhere the Get-Hotfix dates formatting\comparison isn't working.

Hotfix Compatibility: KB2522807 - Windows Server 2008 SP2

Can someone explain why this
Hotfix is not compatible with Windows Server 2008 SP2 when it states this is one of the OS prerequisites? There only seems to be a download for Windows Vista, 7 and 2008 R2 but not 2008 Standard.
I am seeing this exact issue on 2008 SP2 so would be nice to have the fix for it.
Thanks.

Hello,
according to
http://support.microsoft.com/hotfix/KBHotfix.aspx?kbnum=2522807&kbln=en-us this hotfix is for Windows Server 2008
R2 SP1

Windows Server 2008 sp2 Task Scheduler missing next run time after restart

Hi,
I have the issue that there does not appear to be a fix for with a server 2008 sp2 (NOT R2) where after a restart all tasks are missing the next run time so I need to edit each task to add this time back in. I have tried the hotfix in KB 950035
but this when you run it is only for Vista and cannot be installed despite saying it's also for Server 2008.
For some reason also this is Task Scheduler version 1 not 2 which I thought came with windows since Vista so SP2 should have it.
Anyone got any ideas?
Thanks,

Hi Evans,
Would you please let us know current situation of this issue?
As Dave mentioned, Windows Server 2008 Service Pack 2 include all the previously released updates for Windows
Server 2008.
Based on your description, I understand that all scheduled tasks still miss the next run time on your Windows
Server SP2 when the server restart. If anything I misunderstand, please don’t hesitate to let me know.
On current situation, please open Properties of one problematic scheduled task, navigate to History tab, then
check if find some relevant events or errors. Those may help us to go further analyze.
If any update, please feel free to let us know.
Hope this helps.
Best regards,
Justin Gu

RH Server 9 compatibility with Windows Server 2008 SP2/SQL Server

Our tech support people are preparing for a first install of RH Server 9. They have asked me to find out whether there is a recent patch that would enable it to work with Windows Server 2008 SP2 64 bit and MS SQL Server 2008.
If there is not yet a patch, will there be one for this OS/DB combination in the future, and when?
This is in reference to the knowledgebase article at http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/884/cpsid_88483.html which gives a "not recommended" status to this combination.
Our infrastructure team would prefer to use this combination if it is possible.
Second question from the tech team: Do we need to separate the RoboHelp application from the database or can they both reside on the same server?

To answer your first question, no there is no patch to allow SQL Server 2008 to run on a 64 bit server. To answer your second question, I don't know. This is a user to user forum and therefore we are not party to any discussions on when or if a patch will be released. You could sumbit a feature request which the Adobe RoboHelp Product Manager will get. This will help advance your case. You can submit it here:

Windows server 2008 sp2 andoracle database 10g r2

We have created a server with windows server 2008 sp2, installing various roles, active directory, domain, dhcp server, dns server, some others, and various functionalities, and all works fine.
After all of this we are trying to install oracle database 10g, 'cause compatibiliy with an already existing db running at the moment under this database platform, using oracle universal installer, and when the launcer starts the procedure oracle database configuration assistant its windows come out and after just the 2% of the procedure it stops with ora-12560 error.
Before this not any kind of error appear.
the windows firewall security windows that appears, just 2, are unlocked by clicking the unlock button.
All seems configured right.
The listener service, oracleoradb10g_home1tnslistner, seems configured right, automatically configured from the setup procedure just before the oracle database configuration assistant, and is running.
This is the only one service created and running, at this point of the installation, from oracle.
the global database we are trying to create is named orcl, but in any place this name is found at the moment that the installation stops.
I hope that someone can help with this 'cause are 5 days that we are blocked with the installation and can't install the server in its environment.
We are desperates.

At this link
http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/database/oracle10g/htdocs/10203vista.html
it says server and client for windows 2008 not just client.
Not only.
If I install this with no creation of the active directory and the domain, with all the rest, the installation work till the end without any error.
And anyway the error i reported in the first post happen the same, exactly the same point of the installation, with the 11g version too.
Waiting and hoping can be helped
Best regards.
