Simple Troubleshooting Management Points

 

Just below point when ever you stuck with MP issues

1) Run http://<MP name>/sms_mp/.sms_aut?mplist
This returns a blank screen.
2) Run
http://<MP name>/sms_mp/.sms_aut?mpcert
This returns a long list of numbers and letters.
3) Verify that the DTS Service is enabled.
4) Verify that the Task Scheduler is enabled.
5) Verify that the Windows Management Instrumentation service is running.
6) Verify that the SMS Agent Host service is running.
7) Verify that the World Wide Web Publishing Service is running.
8) Verify that the MP machine account has been added to the
SMS_SiteSystemToSQLConnection_<site_code> group.
9) Verify that the SQL Server has named pipes enabled.
10) Update MDAC on the server.
Review Q820910 for details.

11) SQL boxes that are running under a user account, instead of system,
need the SPN updated in AD.
Review Q829868 for additional details.

12) Crossing domain boundaries between MP and SQL may also need the SPN
updated in AD.

13) IIS Lockdown Tool
If you are using the IIS lockdown tool on your IIS 5 servers be sure to
apply the SMS server template from the SMS 2003 toolkit.
