SMS: Advertisements Incorrectly Go to All Computers (291675)


The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Systems Management Server 2.0
This article was previously published under Q291675

SYMPTOMS

When you create a new collection in the Systems Management Server (SMS) Administrator Console, the collection is created based on a query. In the Query box, only a name is displayed; the query statement stays in its default state, which results in the collection returning the results of all systems. The default query statement is:

SELECT * FROM SMS_R_SYSTEM

CAUSE

This behavior is by design.

WORKAROUND

To work around this behavior, when you create a new query, make sure to generate the proper query statement and do not leave the default settings.
