Ok, first and foremost, can we keep this thread constructive? I only ask because I know there are some who have issues with me at the present time. Honestly, I dont care, but it doesnt belong here.
Anyway, we have been running for nearly a month now without hassle. However, as of late I have been having some rather odd connectivity issues, or at least I am assuming thats what it is.
All services will start without hassle, as they usually do. However, after about 10minutes to an hour after starting (it varies, it has yet to be a specific interval), all services return to a paused state.
Now, I dont mean they crash, or I get flooded with errors or anything of the sort. They simply shut down. Not one or two specific services, but all of them. All at once. Just as they would if you were to manually tell it to do so yourself via the server UI.
After viewing the logs, there is no sign of any error. Nothing more than the usual statements of the services disconnecting. I may be blind and acting as a nub and simply missing the error, but I have been at this for over 24 hours now, and have still found nothing.
Nothing in the past few days has changed from our usual working setup. Well, until last night, but that is a long story and rather disheartening story.
Anyway, at first I had assumed maybe I was having firewall issues. However, all the needed ports were open. I shut down the firewall anyway, and still got the same results. I even went as far as to uninstall the firewall, but it was to no positive results.
I can provide logs if need be. This has me thoroughly confused. At first we had assumed it was a network issue on the end of our dedicated server host. They however led me to believe that it may be some thing a bit more malicious.
We have run rootkit scans, malware, virus, etc etc. I have completely reinstalled SQL, and the server applications. The problem still exists. As I said, all services start as they should, and will run accordingly for a random amount of time (but never more than an hour), but always end in all servers reverting to a paused state. This usually happens within 10-15 minutes, but not always.
Anyone with any further insight would be greatly appreciated.
