Hello Buddy,

Thank you for posting here.

From your post, I understand that after removing WSUS from SBS 2003 R2,
Performance Report does not work properly. If I have misunderstood your
concern, please feel free to correct me.

Based on my experience, we cannot remove WSUS from R2 features directly.
If
we do so, WSUS cannot be removed clearly. Many problems will be
encountered. Such as that Performance Report does not work since it still
tries to collect WSUS information and WSUS node still appears in Server
Management.

To remove WSUS clearly, we need to remove entire SBS 2003 R2 and then
reinstall it without choosing to install WSUS.

I suggest you perform following steps to see if we can resolve the issue:

1. Go to Add/Remove programs, remove Windows Small Business Server 2003
R2.
2. Insert SBS 2003 R2 CD 6 to reinstall Windows Small Business Server R2.
Please select "No, I want to protect my network on my own" so that WSUS
will not be installed on the server.

If Performance Report does not work after reinstalling R2, I suggest you
try following steps:

Step 1: Reinstall monitoring component:
=========================
1. Remove the Monitoring component:

Control Panel -> Add Remove Program -> Windows Small Business Server 2003.
Set Server Tools to Maintenance. Set Monitoring to Uninstall

2. Remove the Monitoring instance:

Control Panel -> Add Remove Program -> SBSMONITORING (Microsoft SQL Server
Desktop Engine) -> Remove

3. Rename or delete C:\program files\Microsoft SQL
Server\MSSQL$SBSMONITORING Folder

For example, rename to C:\program files\Microsoft SQL
Server\old_MSSQL$SBSMONITORING.

4. Remove the following registry keys:

a. Delete
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\SmallBusinessServer\Monitoring
b. Delete HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL
Server\SBSMONITORING

Reboot the SBS Server.

5. Control Panel -> Add Remove Program -> Windows Small Business Server
2003. Set Server Tools to Maintenance. Set Monitoring to Install.

6. Reboot the SBS Server again.

7. Start the MSSQL$SBSMONITORING and SQLAgent$SBSMONITORING

8. In Server Mangement Console -> Monitoring and Reporting: run the Set
Up
Monitoring Reports and Alerts wizard again, how will things go?

Step 2:
======================
1) From IIS Manager, deleted the following Virtual Directories under WSUS
Administrations

- ClientWebService
- Content
- DssAuthWebService
- ReportingWebService
- SelfUpdate
- ServerSyncWebService
- SimpleAuthebService
- WSUSAdmin

2) From IIS Manager, deleted the WSUSPool application pool
3) Deleted the SUSDB database (C:\WSUS folder)
4) Renamed %Program Files\Update Services folder
5) Removed HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Update Services\ registry key and
subkeys
6) Removed HKLM\System\CCS\Services\Update Services\ registry key and
subkeys

7) Also ensured the following regkeys were not present:

HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\Microsoft Windows
Server Update Services Service Pack 1
HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\WSUS: Client Web Service
HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\WSUS: Client Web Service Methods
HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\WSUS: Reporting Web Service
HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\WSUS: Server Web Methods
HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\WSUS: Server Web Service
HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\WsusService

8) Rebooted server

I hope above information is helpful to you. If you have any concern,
please
feel free to let me know.

Best regards,

| I have a new installation of SBS2003 R2 Std Ed. I removed WSUS 2.0 and
this
| seems to have broken the Server Performance Reports (among other
things).
| The error I get is:
| The page cannot be displayed
| An error occurred on the page you are trying to view.
|
| --------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
| To work around this problem, perform the following steps. After
each
| step, try again to access the page.
|
| a.. Ensure that the MSSQL$SBSMONITORING service is started.
| b.. Ensure that the server is not low on memory or disk space.
| c.. Restart the server.
| d.. Verify that the server is functional and that there are no
| system-wide problems.
| e.. Run the Set Up Monitoring Reports and Alerts task in the
Server
| Management Monitoring and Reporting taskpad.

|
| I performed the suggested steps in the error page. After running the set
up
| wizard, it will work until the next scheduled data collection event.
|
| The event log message indicates that the performance report perf.aspx is
| still attempting to report on update services which is now uninstalled.
I
| attempted replacing this file with another from an SBS2003 SP1 system
that
| has never had WSUS installed. The file date/time stamp on the SP1 file
is
| the same as other files in the monitoring folder (the one I replaced was
| newer, having beed modified when WSUS was installed). This did not help.
|
| The monitoring and reporting snap-in from the server management console
| works for everything but the performance report. That is, the server
usage
| report works fine and other links are fine.
|
| I have googled this event log error and came close with a few hits that
were
| more related with changes to the SQL database. I don't believe my
problem
is
| with SQL
|
| I posted another issue with the removing of WSUS from and R2 box last
week
| where I could not get update services out of the admin console as long
as
| LoadConsole.exe was involved.
|
| WSUS integrates so tightly with the Server Management console and with
| monitoring, that it may be next to impossible to *completely* remove it.
| What I would like to see is a detailed description of what changes occur
to
| and SBS box when the R2 WSUS service is installed, or a complete HowTo
on
| manually removing it.
|
| I'm worried that just reinstalling SBS monitoring will not fix this
problem.
|
| Many thanks for this group's help.
