RE: SOLVED -- RE: server locks up
Not sure... and the spelling may be off too. :D It's something I've heard/used for a LONG time... dates back, I think, to the 60's and 70's. (I know... I'm showing my age. *grin*) According to dictionary.com it's even older than I thought... apparently it's from the late 19-teens and early 1920's. Here's the information it has on the derivation... adjective Slang . fine; completely satisfactory; OK. Word Origin History copacetic 1919, but it may have origins in 19c. Amer.Eng. Southern black speech. Origin unknown, suspects include Latin, Yiddish (cf. Heb. kol b'seder ), Italian, Louisiana French ( coupe-sétique ), and Native American. None is considered convincing by linguists.

re: server locks up
So what was the resolution on this problem? Jason I've got a Dell Poweredge 2900 that keeps locking up for no apparent reason that I can find. Nothing in the event logs...just the logs stop at a certain point. If I reboot the server on a regular basis (2 or 3 times per week) it's all good, but I hate to do that. I'd like to find out what's causing this problem. Any suggestions where to start since there appears to be nothing in the event logs?

RE: server locks up
Ouch. I'd highly suggest support contracts on all, but definitely DCs. You can usually reinstate for cheap not sure what one off calls costs. They cover everything hardware, and even MS products. I've used them before for Exchange help, and couldn't believe the knowledge they had, and how they bent over backwards to help me with it.

RE: server locks up
Yep. I just got out of chat with a Dell technician. We ran a couple diagnostics and it appears that the hardware is good. He pointed out that we're getting errors trying to log in as John Dough. We don't *have* that user, even as a test user. I suspect that may have been related to the ICVerify software that I uninstalled this morning, though. -Original Message- From: Orland, Kathleen [mailto:korl...@rogers.com] Sent: Thursday, May 19, 2011 2:22 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: server locks up Have you verified that your event logs aren't full?
