Event InformationAccording to Microsoft :
Cause :
This event is logged when MSDTC was unable to migrate its log during Windows upgrade.
Resolution :
Resolve transactions manually
The system reported that the log file for the Microsoft Distributed Transaction Coordinator service (MSDTC) was not upgraded. The old log may contain records of unresolved transactions that you must resolve manually. Open the old log and note any unresolved transactions, and then resolve these transactions manually using the Component Services administrative tool.
To perform this procedure, you must have membership in Administrators, or you must have been delegated the appropriate authority.
To resolve unresolved transactions manually:
1.Click Start, and then click Run.
2.Type comexp.msc, and then click OK. If the User Account Control dialog box appears, confirm that the action it displays is what you want, and then click Continue.
3.Click Component Services, click Computers, click My Computer, and then click Distributed Transaction Coordinator.
4.Click Local DTC, and then click Transaction List.
5.In the Transaction List, right-click the transaction that you want to manually resolve (Commit), point to Resolve, and then click Commit.
When a transaction's Commit outcome is forced (that is, when the transaction is committed manually), the transaction is designated as Forced Commit.
Verify
To perform this procedure, you must have membership in Administrators, or you must have been delegated the appropriate authority.
