SYMPTOMS
========
A Systems Management Server site receives the following error message (Msg ID
679) every few minutes from the Discovery Data Manager:
Failed to enumerate sites
CAUSE
=====
The SMS Service account listed in the SMSDATA table of the Systems Management
Server database does not match the service account with which the SMS_EXECUTIVE
is started (as listed under Services in Control Panel).
When a Systems Management Server component connects to an SQL database, Systems
Management Server checks whether the connection is being made by the SMS Service
account. If not, Systems Management Server checks permissions and excludes sites
from the query of the Sites table based on explicit permissions (provider
security). In this case, Discovery Data Manager (DDM) is logged on with an
account name that does not match the <ServiceAccountName> entry in the
SMSDATA table. As a result, the query to find all sites returns no rows, causing
DDM to malfunction and the error message above to be displayed.
WORKAROUND
==========
To work around this behavior, perform a site reset by running SMS Setup at the
Site Server, and respecify the SMS Service Account in the
DomainName\ServiceAccountName format.
For example:
MYDOM1\smsservice
It may take several minutes after the site reset is complete before the
information is actually updated.
