Reboot / BSOD Troubleshooting Guide For SonicWall Endpoint Security

Description

This knowledge article provides information on a Windows 11 device that began unexpectedly rebooting after SonicWall Endpoint Security version 1.0.33 was installed. The issue also includes missing expected crash dump files after each reboot, including MEMORY.DMP or Minidump.

Resolution

>>Verify whether crash dump files are being generated after each unexpected reboot. Check for the presence of MEMORY.DMP or Minidump files on the Windows 11 device.

>>Confirm and document whether the reboot behavior started after the installation of SonicWall Endpoint Security version 1.0.33. Use this information as the baseline for internal reboot and BSOD troubleshooting.

>>Review the SVC logs and identify the exact timestamp corresponding to the most recent reboot event.

>>Check the logs for any errors, especially the following message observed in version 1.0.33:

  • "Impersonation could not be done. Requesting copy and scan."

>>Verify that the device status remains continuously Online and does not transition to Offline or any other state.

>>Ensure that the device time and status are synchronized and match the information displayed in the cloud console.

>>Review Resource Monitor and check for high memory utilization or any abnormal resource consumption.

>>Look for the following log entries in the Theron logs and note their timestamps if found:

********** SonicWall Theron v1.0.33 **********
******* SonicWall Theron v1.0.33 *******

 

This mean the system was reboot.

 

These entries can help determine service restarts, component reloads, or events that may correlate with the unexpected reboot behavior.
