I had to physically shut it down and bring it back up. Prior to the freeze i noticed some users were getting the Outlook prompt in their sys trays "Outlook is retrieving information from your server", I KVM'd into the box and everything froze, hence the reboot. Now rebooted, everything is up but i notice an that at times a few users are getting the same prompt -- I've never received or experienced this on the mail server, and it's been up and running for over 3 years without this kind of issue. What can i do to start the troubleshooting process ? I checked my physical disks and they are all okay. Memory utilization is abnormal either. Is there a specific counter inside Perfmon i can monitor ?
