Server 2008 Stalling

We have a Windows 2008 server that is mainly our file server. For the past 2 days in the morning the server is inaccessable the network drives don't respond even the display on it don't respond and I have to hard boot it. The only thing I see in the event viewer s this error at 12:38AM and then nothing till I reboot it in the morning. Does anyone have any ideas what may be causing this

Event ID 1058

The processing of Group Policy failed. Windows attempted to read the file \\MYDOMAIN.local\sysvol\MYDOMAIN.local\Policies\{31B2F340-016D-11D2-945F-00C04FB984F9}\gpt.ini from a domain controller and was not successful. Group Policy settings may not be applied until this event is resolved. This issue may be transient and could be caused by one or more of the following:
a) Name Resolution/Network Connectivity to the current domain controller.
b) File Replication Service Latency (a file created on another domain controller has not replicated to the current domain controller).
c) The Distributed File System (DFS) client has been disabled.

How many domain controllers have you in this site?

Those errors could be DNS related

Give us more details on your environment

Also post the output of

ipconfig /all

on this server...

That was supposed to be 5 servers not 15, not that I think that is all that important
Right...but how many DC's? DNS looks fine on this machine but with 5 servers how many are actual domain controllers? Cause those errors are related to ad replication from that I read...which means this current stalling server is a DC yes?

From a DC run

dcdiag /e /v /c > dcdiag.txt

Will create a txt file called dcdiag in the directory from where you run the command prompt - attach here so we can check

Also run if you have multiple DC's...

repadmin /showrepl
repadmin /replsummary

Note this may have nothing to do with AD(I'm working on the error you saw) but you say these are all running on VMWare? VMWare what? ESX/ESXi? Workstation?

Also you 'hard boot' the box - normally when I hear hard boot it means physical hardware switch off and back on - but I assume you mean the VM is just forced down?

What version of ESX(i) if you have that?
1 DC
No this server thats stalling is not a domain controller we use it as a file server.

Its VMware ESXI 5
And by Hard boot I meant I logged in and reset just this server (hard boot as if it were a physical server) The other 2 servers running on tis V box are stable

Open in new window

Ok, again not sure this was a DC issue but based on the error its not seeing GPO's

Can you on your DC browse to
\\midamar-cr.local\sysvol\midamar-cr.local\Policies

Can you see all the policy folders in that?

On the machine that is hanging - you can't even open the VM Console and access? You said
network drives don't respond even the display on it don't respond

What display? RDP? Or the VM Console?

Also give us a bit of history - this has started happening in the last 2 days only - what changed that you know of? How much space is left on the C drive for example?
When its hung can you from a remote system ping it?
Yes on the DC I can broswe to \\midamar-cr.local\sysvol\midamar-cr.local\Policies and see 3 folders there.

From another machine I can login to VShpere and open a console to the problem server it shows the Cntl, Alt Delete screen. When I hit send Cntl, Alt Delete, that disappears and the next part that is supposed to show the logged in user so i can put in the password never appears. From there I have to reset that server.

This is happening every night about 12:32 AM. Then I get that error 1058 in the event viewer and then nothing till I reset it each day. As far as I can tell nothing has changed. There is almost 60G free on the C Drive.
I didn't think of trying to ping it I can try that the next time but when its down in the morning, i can't rdp into in nor access the shared documents.
It also shows that error 1058 at various times during the day so it may not be relevant, its just been the last one recorded before the server stalls
Yes it responds to ping while its stalling

I disabled the scheduled scan of Trend Micro and that seems to have stopped it. I'm going to reinstall it and set that scan back up and see if that resolves it. I don't want to leave the nightly scan turned off indefinately
I've requested that this question be closed as follows:

You should close this the correct way - my answer https://www.experts-exchange.com/questions/28225218/Server-2008-Stalling.html?anchorAnswerId=39456467#a39456467 points to the AV being the possible culprit...which it was...think I deserve credit for that do you not?
