Linked Server / Inconsistent Metadata
I've been getting the following error when attempting to do a 4 part query against my Linked server:
Server: Msg 7353
OLE DB provider 'MSDASQL' supplied inconsistent metadata. An extra column was supplied during execution that was not found at compile time.
The error message then lists the offending field.
I've dropped and recreated the linked server.
One more interesting note: If I create a view that references that linked table such as:
Create view vPV_SOrder as Select * from OpenQuery(ServerName, 'Select * from PV_SOrder')
and then do a select on that view (Select * from vPV_SOrder), I will not get the error.
Is a 'rebuild' of the schema necessary on the Linked Server side? SQL Server side?
This table was modified with the additional table, but there were also many other tables that had fields modified that do not return the error.
Thanks for any help.

We love it so much, we sometimes make horrible decisions. Sometimes, we work "FOR FREE."
SCCM OSD Basic Troubleshooting
SCCM 2007 OSD is a fantastic way to deploy operating systems, however, like most things SCCM issues can sometimes be difficult to resolve due to the sheer volume of logs to sift through and the dispersed nature of the blog posts that deal with some of these issues.

Integrating SCCM and MDT 2008.
