LSASS error on boot 0xc00002e1

 

Ok, I am realizing that a "once per day" post is a bit ambitious!  My new restated goal is once every 2-3 days.  The issue of note this week (that wasn't covered in today's podcast https://blogs.technet.com/sbs) is the often criticized and under appreciated LSASS error on boot.

 

In this case, there was no system state backup.  We had to rely on https://support.microsoft.com/?id=258062 to resolve the issue.

 

Another issue that you may see is with Exchange 2003 SP2 and the IMF.  If you are using the IMF and then upgrade to SP2, you may find that the IMF is now not enabled.  To re-enable it, go to the properties of the smtp virtual server and click advanced, then edit and place a check next to "intelligent message filter".

 

Have a great weekend!
