SYMPTOMS
With an IBM server that has teamed network adapters and 3Com Dynamic Access MiniPort drivers, when you examine the System event log, the following event may be logged:

Event ID 2019

Pool non-paged

The server was unable to allocate from the system non-paged pool because the pool was empty.

The server may either stop responding or restart.



CAUSE
This behavior can occur because the kernel-mode tag, Dynamic Access Protocol version 4 (DAP4), is leaking memory. This tag is provided by 3Com. The tag is a driver that is loaded into the computer for the 3Com 3C98x family of network adapters. The 3Com 3C980C-TXM network adapter is an example.



RESOLUTION
To resolve this behavior, please contact 3COM for an updated version of the Dynamic Access software.

WORKAROUND

 * 1) Right-click My Network Places.
 * 2) Click Properties.
 * 3) Right-click Local Area Connection.
 * 4) Click Properties.
 * 5) Click 3Com Dynamic Access Mini Port Services, and then remove it.
 * 6) Restart the server.
