Hi Ashutosh

The technote doesn't help at all !!!

Our media server is running on Dell PowerEdge 1750, and the tape drive is Dell PowerVault 122T attached to an additional Adaptec 29160. The target remote server is a Dell PowerEdge 1650. Both running on Windows Server SP1, using BEWS v9.1

So none of the condition in this technote is satisfied.

Do you have any other hints?

Steve

The Dell 122T utilises an HP drive within it.

At least our two LTO versions do.

Hello,

Is it a Windows 2003 IBM server?

Have you installed any drivers on the server?

Are there any errors occured in th event logs?

It is just a standard Windows Server 2003 running on Dell PowerEdge 1650. I used Dell's system boot disk to install Windows 2003 with standard Dell's device driver preinstalled. Then I start the restore process by pushing BEWS remote agent to that server and then start the restore. The restore process completed successfully. But the blue screen appeared shortly after reboot. It seems that the blue screen appears before eventlog service has started.

I cannot enter safe mode, safe mode with command prompt. Boot logging does help too (since no log is generated)

Hi,

I've exactly the same problem. Reading this post, I don't have clear what I should do.

Is there any news about this?.
What the problem is?

I have BE 9.1 SP2.

Regards,

try the following
Boot with your Windows installatino Cd
Press F6 to load addition driver.
Give the driver needed for your Raid Controller
Press Enter for new installation
Follow instruction
Then Select repair existing windows installation
then reboot.
should work like a charm!

Ciao

No, it doesn't help at all. Dell PE1650 has Adaptec Ultra 160 SCSI built-in. The before-restore Windows Server 2003 installation has already had all necessary drivers (scsi/nic/display...) installed.

Hello,

As per the technote http://support.veritas.com/docs/250291
you need to check for other points as well.

Please check for the following:
1. An IDE hard drive is designated as the system boot device.
Do you have an IDE hard drive designated as you system boot device?

2. When the first BOOT of the server attempts to complete, the following stop message appears when loading the controller's drive (SYM_U3.SYS):

0x0000006b (0xc000012F, 0x00000003, 0x00000000, 0x00000000)

PROCESS1_INITIALIZATION_FAILED

In your case does it give the driver name. Please provide us the driver name. In most cases it is the driver which causes the blue screen.

I am having the same problem.

I have a Dell PowerEdge 2650 running Windows 2003

Before I put this server in production, I want to make sure I can do a full system restore. I do this with all my systems.

I reloaded Windows 2003 Server, usiung the Dell assistant CD, and reinstalled the backupagent.

I try a full restore (with NO hardware changes since the backup was done), and it completes successfully.

When I go to reboot, I get the same blue screen

PROCESS1_INITIALIZATION_FAILED

0x0000006B (0xC000007A,0x00000008,0x00000000,0x00000000)

There is NO driver name displayed on this blue screen. I need to get this squared away. Thank you.
