Guest · Posted: Wed Oct 26, 2005 8:51 pm Post subject: Pushing MOM agent to clients

I am trying to push the MOM agent to several Windows Server 2003 SP1
machines, and a Windows XP SP2 machine. In doing so I am getting an
error:

Failed
DOMAIN\SERVER1
The MOM Server failed to install agent on remote computer
SERVER1.DOMAIN.EDU.

Error Code: -2147023174
Error Description: The RPC server is unavailable.
Microsoft Installer Error Description: No Description Available

I found this article, but the firewall on these machines is disabled
completely so it does not relate to my problem:

Has anyone run into this before? What might I be doing wrong?! We
have tried rebooting the machines and that didn't help, I tried
installing using my username and password (I am a Domain Admin.) Any
help would be greatly appreciated!

Is this MOM 2005 RTM or SP1? There was an issue with pushing agents to
Windows 2003 Server SP1 servers prior to MOM 2005 SP1. There is a
hotfix for the issue and it is fixed in SP1.

I just sent this reply to David:
Sorry, I should have said...yes this is MOM 2005 SP1, running in
Windows Server 2003 SP1, using SQL 2000 SP3.

Thank you both for the help. I hope that this provides some useful
information.

Are these machines in separate domains without trust relationships
between them? If so, you would have to manually install the agent. If
they are in the same domain, does a manual installation of the agent
succeed?

Hey David,

Thanks for the reponse...they are in the same domain. I haven't tried
a manual install yet. I can try that on one of them to see if it
succeeds...I suspect that it will.
As an FYI, I upgraded to SQL 2000 SP4 last night on the MOM server. I
didn't expect it to fix the problem, but I was out of ideas and it
needed to be done anyway. I did not fix anything.
