Re: system Event log error 15

RSM service should be always stopped since it polls tape devices. Your HBA should be going offline because of that.

First thing, make sure tape drive's driver is above 1.0.4.0.

Second recommendation is to start, stop and disabled RSM. This change is good til next reboot only. For a permanent fix:

Run RegEdit, and navigate to the following registry key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\hplto.

To disable RSM polling, edit the AutoRun value found in this key. A value of 0 (zero) indicates that polling is disabled; a value of 1 indicates that polling is enabled.


After doing this registry change you must reboot your server.

Hope this helps,

Gus
