To troubleshoot a server (w2k8, sp2) I have set up to do memory dump using
ctrl+scrlk+scrlk and dedicated dump file. I tested it and it triggered the
dump. But I expected the server to reboot itself at the end but it didn't.
It showed 100% complete and stayed at the blue screen. I had to manaully
power it down/on. Is it supposed to like this? After reboot a new
memory.dmp was created. I guess it is working but just curious if it should
reboot itself once done.

Any idea?

Thanks.

Hello,

This applies to all modern Microsoft OSs, Vista, 7, the Server Editions,
XP etc. There is a setting called auto restart on System failure (BSoD)
and this is a BSoD, therefore it will follow this rule, so it will only
restart itself if this setting is disabled, so it is just what your
server is configured to do. In your case it will not auto restart, so
don't worry.

If you are expecting a response from me, and do not have one
within 24 hours, PM me. Never feel afraid to send me a PM; that is what
the system is for.

Richard,
I do have the auto restart option enabled. Should it reboot or
Ctrl-ScrLK-ScrLK is not a real system failur (BSOD)? Or there is a registry
setting somewhere might override the auto restart setting?

Thanks.
