Now that's a good idea! I like it. Thanks, KJ. I'm such a die-hard command line guy that I honestly haven't gotten nailed by forgetting. But I've known enough others who have, certainly.
The other thing I would do if I had a Trend environment is to do a similar script for Trend as I have done for Exchange. Manually shutting down Trend before you begin the restart. And call that script after the exchange, I suspect, though I'd have to experiment.

seeing this with no trend on them. I'd suggest using shutdown command
scripts that first shutdown Exchange, then shutdown the server. I
wrote some a while back and they're posted on Susan Bradley's blog
for everyone to use. And they seem to solve the problem on those
machines that have shown it in the past. But it means you have to
change habits and always use them - if you forget and auto-reboot
from the GUI the scripts can't help you.
Old dog Exchange guys were always forgeting... until it was too late. If you create a group policy object - computer shutdown script (linked to the domain controllers OU) then you need not worry about forgeting - it'll just run for you ! (DCs that don't happen to have Exchange Services work fine with your script and other similar ones)

We have a SBS 2003 R2 Server that appears to hang on shutdown. I
left it for
over 24hours (over the weekend) and it had not shutdown. After 10
minutes or
so the screen goes blank and thats it. You have to manually power
off the server and restart it. As we are running mirrored raid the
Intel matrix system then forces a rebuild of the array. This seems
to corrupt the access
2000 database that we use for our main system. When users first log
back in
they can open the database but shortly after any users who open the
database
get a repair required errror.
What I would like to know is does anyone have any ideas about what
might be
causing the problem and if not is there any log files or any other
method of
tracking what processes are happening (or not as the case may be)
when the system is trying to shutdown or restart.
Cheers
Dave
