* 0x00000008, or Double Fault, indicates that an exception occurs during a
call to the handler for a prior exception. Typically, the two exceptions are
handled serially. However, there are several exceptions that cannot be handled
serially, and in this situation the processor signals a double fault. There are
two common causes of a double fault:
* A kernel stack overflow. This overflow occurs when a guard page is
hit, and the kernel tries to push a trap frame. Because there is no stack left,
a stack overflow results, causing the double fault. If you think this overview
has occurred, use
!thread<mk:@MSITStore:C:\debuggers64\debugger.chm::/hh/DebugMS/r29_exts_kernel_q_127b52f2-51ff-49c3-9392-7059a2f5a723.xml.htm>
to determine the stack limits, and then use kb (Display Stack
Backtrace)<mk:@MSITStore:C:\debuggers64\debugger.chm::/hh/DebugMS/r17_cmds_i_58e69e42-fcda-4972-9358-60ab7a6e1def.xml.htm>
with a large parameter (for example, kb 100) to display the full stack.
* A hardware problem.
Thanks,

The stop errors were all similar to this: 0x00000007f (0x000000008, 0xf7727fe0,
0x00000000, 0x00000000). Nothing really helpful.
Servers are a mix of HP DL 140s and DL 380s.

What version is your domain? What's the stop error? Are all the servers the
same hardware? Any recent updates?

Has anyone experienced any strange issues with Domain Controllers lately?
Friday we had every single one of ours randomly reboot with Stop errors
throughout the day. We ended up having to remove one and that seemed to have
calmed down the issues. Today it seems to have started up again.
I have no idea of where to even start looking.
