It's a different structure isn't it?

I know for instance that there is a schema change in R02 for CPS4 which can
cause problems if the servers aren't updated correctly. Should always have
your Dcs on the latest  service pack revision - but this won't be the case
in the new farm. 

And your obviously getting some timeout issues.

For example, in a migration at least your Dcs, data connection servers and
metric servers should be PS4 first - if you've gone PS3 for everything
that's probably not going to be pretty.

:(

I didn't recreate the datastore when I downgraded or when I later rebuilt
from fresh. I thought the datastore would remain compatible. I may create a
new farm on a new datastore and move the servers into it tomorrow. The
difficulty is that we are in healthcare and need the farm 25/8.

Indeed - or did you re-create the datastore, but use the old .dsn?

What's your datastore?

Did you recreate your datastore when you downgraded from PS4 to PS3? What
was your procedure? Perhaps there was a misstep that could explain what's
happening...

I've just run DSCHECK and I' getting

"Can't read package info from data store"
"Can't read package info from data store"
"Can't read package info from data store"

I've tried dscheck/full on apps, servers and printers but the warnings
remain. related?

Using qwinsta I was seeing a couple of down sessions, then a number of
sessions hit conn and move no further. At that point the server is accepting
load, but unable to process it. 

Mind, I think mine is related to session logons coming in too fast. I also
had a problem with a logon script attempting to map to a drive that didn't
actually exist - this was for all users and no help at all to the logon
process.

What happens if you *don't* put on the hotfixes?
