Re: Determin drive letter using \Device\HarddiskVolume##

Thanks David and Miles,

I found out using the WinObj program that the problem drive is the C: drive
on the SBS server. I believe they recently had an issue with one of the
drives in the RAID array. This error may have appeared when the drive was
replaced during the time they were bringing the server back up. I'll talk to
the customer today and find out when exactly they did the replacement. I
have sent the logs to Miles.

I'll get back to this post after I talk to the customer.

Hello Lesa,

Thank you for posting here.

According to your description, I understand the issue is that:

On a workstation of the SBS domain, Event ID 55 is recorded that indicates
the "The file system structure on the disk is corrupt and unusable".

If I have misunderstood the problem, please don't hesitate to let me know.

Typically, \Device\HarddiskVolume2 indicates the second partition on a
basic disk. You can verify the drive letter in the Computer
Management--->Disk Management. The second volume of that disk is the
HarddiskVolume2 (from left to right).

To determine the each driver's physical device name, you can use
Sysinternals WinObj:

WinObj v2.15
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896657.aspx

1. Expand the node \--->GLOBAL??
2. In the right panel, you can verify the physical device name of each
drive letter such as C:, D:

About the Event ID 55, please run CHKDSK command on the disk that contains
the corrupted file. There is a known issue that Event ID 55 will be
recoreded while saving a file that has a DBCS file name Windows Server
2003. Please make sure that the latest service pack is installed on the
system.

There is a known issue that some Antivirus software may cause this issue,
you may perform the clean boot on the client that has this issue to narrow
down the issue.

a) Type msconfig in the command prompt and press Enter
b) Click Services tab and select Hide All Microsoft Services and
Disable All third party Services.
c) Click Startup tab and Disable All startup items
d) Click OK and choose Restart
e) After reboot, check whether the Event ID 55 persists.

For your reference:

885871 You may receive an error message when you revise and
then save a file that has a DBCS file name in Windows Server 2003 or in
Windows 2000

If the issue persists, please help to collect the following information:
=====================

1. Does this issue happen on SBS or workstation? Please let me know the
version of the OS.

2. If the event log is recorded on a SBS server, could you please collect
the MPS report on the SBS 2003 server and send to me at
v-mileli@xxxxxxxxxxxxx <mailto:v-mileli@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>?

concerns, please do not hesitate to let me know.
