Hi all
Over the past 2 weeks, one of my SAN MEdia Servers is blue screening -
sometimes it happens during a backup, other times the blue screen appears to
happen with no backups are running.
 
I had ruled NBU being to blame as its been running flawless for some time
now, however people now believe NBU is to blame :-(
 
I have managed to grab some mini-dump files from the Win2k3 Server and try
to analyse them using a tool called DUMPCHK.exe The results are below.....

Finished dump check
 
 
Now, not knowing MUCH about blue screen anaylsing, is there anyone on this
list that could either help determine what the cause is, or recommend some
free software that I can try and use?
 
I appreciate this is slightly off topic, however I would like to rule NBU
out of the picture. This is a Win2k3 Server, SP1 with NBU 5.1 MP2 as a SAN
MEdia Server, using fibre to connect to a HP LTO3 Robotic Library over
fibre.
 
Thank you
