Re: Site Code Not Discovered.




Assigned is simple (is this machines IP address within any of the
boundaries specified. If machines fall into a subnet that you remove,
they will become unassigned.
If you aren't discoving the site code...there are three things to
check

1) DHCP Setup - are the clients looking at a specific DHCP Server
static, or are they on automatic. If there DHCP server is on a subnet
outide of the SMS boundaries, even though it is dishing out SMS
boundary IPs, the client will contact the DHCP local site for automatic
site code. Don't ask why.

2) Management Point Configuration - You may have either not installed
the management point on the site server admin console, or it had a
corrupt install, which is quite common actually. On your site server,
check to see if CCMExec.exe is running if it is, then the MP is
running, but like I said, may not be functioning properly. Open Site
Heirarchy, Site Settings, Servers, right click on your SMS Sever,
Management Point tab. On the "Use this server as a management point" if
it is checked, uncheck it, reboot the site server (easier than messing
around starting and stopping the WMI Provider for SMS), go back to the
point specified, and re-check it again, if it wasn;t checked in the
first place, check it. Click ok. Open Task Manager, Processes, sort by
Name, and look for MPSetup.exe, this should appear after about 10
seconds, and will last for about 10 minutes, this is the MP installing,
try to not do anything while this is installing, it can be as fragile as
the old school CD burners. Once it has finished the process will
dissapear and CCMExec.exe will appear.

3) The Domain Administrators account must be in the client PCs Local
Administrator group. Open command on a client with admin priviledges,
and type

Code:
--------------------
net localgroup Administrators domainname\Domain Admins /add
--------------------


Hope this helps
