This article was previously published under Q161877 SYMPTOMS
If the computer running Windows NT Server is also running Cheyenne software
Arcserver backup software, Windows NT Server periodically generates events
that have no source or event ID. The message is:
ExIfStart Registry key for server not found 2l.
CAUSE
Arcserve uses Raima database software as part of its backup package. During
the Arcserve installation process, this database software is not installed;
only a database file and a software piece for it are installed.
A Raima executable file named Rds.exe runs as part of the backup process,
and it looks for the registry entry ExIfStart. Because the full Raima
installation has not been run, the entry is not there.
Note that the error message is harmless, and does not affect either Windows
NT or the backup process.
