PSS was not called. Our Windows admins (and Cisco admins) are in the mode of reboot now to get the service back, try to debug after the fact, make a call if it happens again. (and they have no PSS contract so are sometimes reluctant to call)
On the AD no user was effected since we run the recommended 3 AD servers. Server admins noticed via their monitoring software. They could not get to the server to see what was wrong (at least in any reasonable amount of time) since the CPU was in full use.

We all have different experiences and maybe none of
it is a technology problem but a people problem.
Or maybe it is a technology problem... I did say all servers will crash,
I was including Windows. :)
One was a cluster running Exchange 2007 and all of
Exchange died until the cluster was rebooted.
Um, something's wrong there... obviously. The point of the cluster is to
allow a node to die w/out killing the rest. What did PSS have to say?
We also had an AD server go to 100% CPU and needed rebooted although no
one noticed this
Why did it go to 100%? Any research done into the problem? And no one
niticed that it needed to be rebooted, or no user could tell that it was
rebooted?
and a server running network printer services froze and all printers
stopped printing until the server was rebooted.
Well, that sucks. Again, cause? :)
