Windows server restarts unexpexcted in ESXi 5.5

[ricky73]

Windows server restarts unexpexcted so I captured logs on my ESXi 5.5 server.

Event viewer of VM shows these 2 last messages:

• "VMCI: using capabilities" (0xc), event id 3, type information
• "the previous system shutdown at 13:05:19 on 01/06/2015 was unexpected", event id 6008, type error

I'm not able to understand if vm reset itself or if there is soft shutdown, I think it's a reset system because I don't see logs about shutting of all service before 6008 event.

Among Windows log and vmware.log there is difference of 2 hours

Vmware.log of vm shows:

I note this behaviour in event viewer but I can't know what is happening. I think there is no blue screen otherwise vm would keep this state until manual reset of vSphere user.

This problem occurs sporadically.

Can you suggest me how to debug this problem?

[cykVM]

Hi,

as you said there is a huge time difference between the Windows event log entries and the VM's logfile, is there probably a general time drift between the time on the ESXi host and the domain time?

You should consider getting accurate time on both ESXi host and inside your Windows VMs.

[ricky73]

My ESXi host has the same time of the Windows guest machine, I was not able to understand because I see this difference.

But what about vm problem debug??

[brunofernandez1]

vmware.log is alsways written in UTC time as far as I can remember

[cykVM]

I think this might lead to a solution:

Which Windows version are you running with that VM. The Buslogic (virtual) SCSI adapter does not support 64bit OS and anything later than Windows 2003.

SeeVm's crash or VMware: Change SCSI Controller Type from BusLogic to LSI Logic | Password Recovery

Or is there any reason for using the Buslogic adapter?

[ricky73]

It's running Windows 2000 server SP4 (32 bit) and I know it's no more supported in ESXi 5.5 but other Windows 2000 server machines are working.

[cykVM]

Are the other Win2k VMs also using the Buslogic adapter? I would give the LSI adapter a try to see if that runs stable. If the Buslogic performs a hard reset during runtime the VM looses connection to it's basedisk vmdk and that will for sure lead to a freeze/lock up.

It might be even adviseable to run such old OS in a VMWare 4.x environment...

[ricky73]

This Buslogic adapter is also used in other Win2k (about 15 vm) and I have problems only in 5 vm (always Win2k)

[cykVM]

Are all your Win2k VMs running the same version of VMWare tools? Maybe a kind of manual install of the tools help, see VMware Front Experience: An analysis of the vSphere 5.5 VMware Tools for Windows installation

Don't have any Win2k VMs running myself anymore, so it's just guessing here.

Maybe this helps Windows 2000 Server on vSphere 5 (Update)

Following the compatibility guide for Windows 2000 SP4 and VMWare 5.5 you may even try to switch the (virtual) NIC to see if that helps.

[ricky73]

all Win2k VMs are running the same version of VMWare tools
