RE: Confusing server issue

2008-03-13 Thread Rankin, James R 
I think I have just sorted this, actually. However in true I.T. support
fashion I don't understand why it was happening - I disabled all the
Symantec services and now it works fine. All the other VMs (running on
VMWare) have the same Symantec garbage running and they log on without
issue. Very strange.

Thanks for all suggestions as usual though - and yes, the UK sucks, although
doubtless I would be scurrying back if I lived somewhere like Mogadishu  :-)

Running out of space in the VM when paging to disk for the user?  Which

Here’s a confusing one – I have a virtual server running Windows 2003 
that shuts itself down every time I log in. It will boot in safe mode or 
diagnostic mode without any issues, yet whenever I log on in normal 
mode, it shuts down. The shutdown in the event log shows as “Legacy API 
shutdown” and comes from NT Authority. The UPS service is stopped, and 
there are no patches pending or trying to install. The startup in 
msconfig shows nothing strange. Anyone have any ideas why this might be 
happening? Google appears not to be my friend for this issue…

No, when anyone logs in. Even a user that creates a new profile - it
actually shut down quicker than normal with a new profile.

Here's a confusing one - I have a virtual server running Windows 2003 that
shuts itself down every time I log in. It will boot in safe mode or
diagnostic mode without any issues, yet whenever I log on in normal mode, it
shuts down. The shutdown in the event log shows as "Legacy API shutdown" and
comes from NT Authority. The UPS service is stopped, and there are no
patches pending or trying to install. The startup in msconfig shows nothing
strange. Anyone have any ideas why this might be happening? Google appears
not to be my friend for this issue.
