Windows / Exchange Hangs on Shutdown

Joseph Geretz

Currently, I'm running Exchange 2003 under Windows Server 2003. However, the
problem originally occurred when I upgraded to Exchange 2003 under Windows
Server 2000. (This was during the course of upgrading my server. I've since
completed the upgrade for both Exchange and Windows.)

Basically, Windows hangs on shutdown. Here are the final entries from the
eventlog. The first entry is a successful shutdown of SQL Server. As you can
see, shutdown was initiated at 8:16. Over the next 10 seconds or so, a whole
bunch of Exchange related failures are logged. Shutdown then simply hangs
and I need to perform a machine reset in order to re-boot. After restarting
I can see where the system hung because there's a large gap in eventlog
entries.

I've presented the shutdown eventlog entries below. If you can help me with
this, I'll be most grateful.

Thanks!

Digging a bit deeper...

I stopped ALL services manually (except for the handful which cannot be
stopped). Shutdown succeeds. OK, it seems that one of my services is hanging
on shutdown. But which one? I don't relish the prospect of using the trial
and error approach to shut down services one by one, rebooting each time. Is
there any way to generate a verbose log of shutdown activity so that I can
see what's going on during shutdown?

Thanks for your help!

One thing I forgot to add, is the machine in question is dual boot with
Windows XP Professional which unlike W2K3 does not have any shutdown issues.

I've also got a shutdown problem on one of my pcs with win2k3. I tried
enabling verbose messaging in group policy as this tip describes but
unfortunately I don't see that it gains you very much, apart from a few
extra messages flashing past in the bottom line of the starting up and
shutting down window.

At the point when my system hangs on shutdown, the box has diappeared and
all that is left is a frozen mouse pointer on a blank grey screen.

If I power down the system manually it comes back fine. Funnily enough, if I
do a restart instead of shutdown that works every time.

I suppose this could point to some problem with windows telling the bios to
power off the system. What would be great, is if, like some other Operating
Systems that I've worked on, it was possible to generate a shutdown logfile
with timestamped entries showing each process shutting step by step. If the
last line was something like "Sending call to bios to power down" this would
confirm it.

Perhaps I'm missing something and there is a way to achieve this.

If not, is there an article somewhere which explains the internals of
shutdown functionality step by step. Is there a registry entry or script
which could be modified to achieve this. If not publicly documented, surely
MS must have some way of achieving this for their own internal testing
purposes.

Best Regards

Paul

If Exchange 2003 is installed on a DC/GC, it may take approximately 10
minutes for the server to shutdown. This is because the AD service
(LSASS.EXE) shuts down before the Exchange services, and DSAccess will go
through several timeouts before shutting down. The workaround for this issue
is to manually stop the Exchange services (specifically the Store) before
initiating a system shutdown or restart.

Hope this helps.

Currently, I'm running Exchange 2003 under Windows Server 2003. However, the
problem originally occurred when I upgraded to Exchange 2003 under Windows
Server 2000. (This was during the course of upgrading my server. I've since
completed the upgrade for both Exchange and Windows.)

Basically, Windows hangs on shutdown. Here are the final entries from the
eventlog. The first entry is a successful shutdown of SQL Server. As you can
see, shutdown was initiated at 8:16. Over the next 10 seconds or so, a whole
bunch of Exchange related failures are logged. Shutdown then simply hangs
and I need to perform a machine reset in order to re-boot. After restarting
I can see where the system hung because there's a large gap in eventlog
entries.

I've presented the shutdown eventlog entries below. If you can help me with
this, I'll be most grateful.

Thanks!

Hi Michael,

I think that your diagnosis is correct. First of all, I want to retract my
original assertion. The system does not hang (although 10 minutes seems like
a lifetime when you are trying to restart ;-) Your estimate of 10 minutes is
right on the money; this is how long it takes to shut down. I will look into
ways of shutting down Exchange first and then shutting down the OS.

Just a suggestion for MS, if I may. Services start in a defined sequence
when the OS boots up. Shouldn't the reverse sequence be used to stop
services when the OS is powering down?

Thanks for your help!

I had heard that this will be resolved in the RTM release.

just my 2 cents
