Hi,

I run a live streaming site and have a problem with Windows Media
Server.

Lately the hosting company have had random power outages and each time
my windows 2003 server reboots, it has corrupted parts of the
servernamespace.xml file with garbage. To reinstate it, I look at the
error log, find the line number, add in the right XML which has been
wiped, try to restart the media server... which finds the next error,
then repeat the process for about an hour until I'm completely sick of
it.

It's perhaps an unduely large file and I could solve a lot of problems
by scripting something which rebuilds the file in one fail swoop, but
the biggest annoyance is that I'm not always present when this occurs
so a fix would be much better than this situation so that when the
server reboots unexpectedly, it actually brings windows media server
back with it. Anyone seen this before and can help?

Thanks,

Pat
