I've opened a ticket with symantec.
But here is what we've learned on our own. We were able to reproduce the events by taking the FSA Database offlline and then requesting numerous vaulted files from numerous systems (I want go into how we accomplished that for brevities sake if someone is curious I'll be glad to let you know). This caused what I termed a cascade effect but in reality was not. Instead what happened is it simply filled up the browser queu on the file server (the Vault or SQL Server never experienced any other outage in fact). Which would make perfect sense if you think about it. Stopping the vault services on the File Server stopped this from happening and allowed access to the file server again.
I'm curious to here what Symantec has to say and will see if SP1 fixes this issue, I'm curious if there is a counter I can watch on the file server to see if this is happening and cause it to stop the vault services.
