The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

SMS 2003 secondary site install

Asked by Tekjunkie in MS System Center

Tags: Microsoft, SMS, 2003, SMS 2003 secondary site install failed to create AD object

Hi experts

I have recently installed a new secondary site SMS 2003 SP2 . However reviewing the site status, I noticed the following under componet staus: SMS_SITE_COMPONENT_MANAGER . In addtion, I have verifed  the new secondary site computer account has full access under the "System Management" container in Active Directory. Should I manually create this object under "sytem management" container ? BTW: my schema has been extend several months ago and have installed a few  SMS secondary sites in the past and don't recall running into this problem. Just seems strange that I'm having this problem now, shouldn't SMS create this obect automatically during secondary site install ?

 Thanks!
Systems Management Server cannot create the object "cn=SMS-MP-JKT-JKTMG01" in Active Directory.

Possible cause: This site's SMS Service account or the site server's machine account may not have full control rights for the "System Management" container in Active Directory
Solution: Give the site's SMS Service account full control rights to the "System Management" container, and all child objects in Active Directory.

Possible cause: Another Active Directory object named "cn=SMS-MP-JKT-JKTMG01" already exists somewhere outside of the "System Management" container
Solution: Locate the other object with the same name, and delete the object from its current location.  Then allow SMS create a new object.

Possible cause: The Active Directory schema has not been extended with the correct SMS Active Directory classes and attributes.
Solution: Turn off Active Directory publishing for each site in the forest, until the schema can be extended.  The schema can be extended with the tool "extadsch.exe" from the SMS CD.
