The information in this article applies to:

    • the operating system: Microsoft Windows NT
  • Microsoft SNA Server 2.1, when used with:
    • the operating system: Microsoft Windows NT
This article was previously published under Q121360

SYMPTOMS

When you set one SNA Server in a domain to log events to a remote SNA Server in that domain, the remote system becomes unstable. After any remote logging is done, the following error message appears on the remote SNA Server when any RPC-aware process runs:
The RPC service is too busy to service this request.
This problem may occur when SNA Server runs under Windows NT or Windows NT Advanced Server version 3.1 with U.S. Service Pack 2 for Windows NT and Windows NT Advanced Server installed.

CAUSE

RESOLUTION

To avoid this problem, upgrade the local SNA Server computer to Windows NT Server or Windows NT Workstation version 3.5.

WORKAROUND

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Windows NT and Windows NT Advanced Server version 3.1. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
