Event viewer: "The server's call to a system service failed unexpectedly"

[Guest news.microsoft.com]

Hi all,

 

I have a seemingly untraceable issue on a Windows 2003 server -- every few

seconds, an entry is being written into the system event log that reads:

Source: Srv

Event ID: 2000

Category: None

Description: The server's call to a system service failed unexpectedly

Data:

0000: 00040000 00540001 00000000 c00007d0

0010: 00000000 c000010a 00000000 00000000

0020: 00000000 00000000 00bd0334

 

My event log only goes back to the start of today, but there's 87000 entries

exactly like this. So it's becoming rather a nuisance. Now I've done a lot

of googling on this, but it seems to be unresolved; EventID.net doesn't list

it in it's summary[1] and comments. However I've got a bit further with

other searches. The key error code apparently is c000010a, which maps to

some STATUS_ code. According to a number of places, this is

STATUS_PROCESS_IS_TERMINATING, which doesn't help me too much, apart from

give a number a name.

 

Unfortunatly, this has led me to a dead-end. Various suggestions I've seen

include DNS Server (server doesn't have the DNS server service installed),

NAS storage (none attached), anti-virus (all disabled and we're still

getting errors). So it's a loss.

 

What I'm looking for is a way to trace the process that's raising this and

work from there. However I've not found the right incantation for google (if

there is one) to find a way to trap writes to the event log so I can map an

entry back to a running executable. Is anyone aware of a way this could be

performed? I suspect process monitor could do it, but that's not working on

this server (no matter what I do to the filters, it doesn't capture any

events: display stays resolutely blank).

 

Any other suggestions for a line of enquiry also welcome.

 

Cheers,

 

Chris

Hi there,

 

Thanks for the prompt feedback, however we do not have Cheyenne Open file

Agent installed on this server. We also do not have Veritas Storage

replicator installed.

 

Regards,

 

Chris
