SYMPTOMS

When SQL Server is paused, any attempt you make to connect from a client tool, for example ISQL/W, gives the following error:
Msg. No.: -10737; Severity: 14; State 0
SQL Server has been paused; No new connections will be allowed.

The message number is incorrect. The correct message number should be
  1. The message defined in the source is:

    MessageID: INIT_SRVC_PAUSED
    SQL Server has been paused; No new connections will be allowed.
This is defined as 0xc00042f6. By turning on trace flag 4031 you can see that SQL Server sends the correct message number in byte-reversed order: f64200c0.
