Disconnect Web Server from Cluster Causes Loss of UPD Updates (164797)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Commercial Internet System 1.0
This article was previously published under Q164797 SYMPTOMS
If more than one of your web servers use the same properties database, and
you change the settings for your User Properties database, one of the web
servers may not get updated.
The first time you run the Setup program for Microsoft Personalization
System (MPS), you can select the settings for all the servers. Because the
registries of all the servers in the cluster keep a list of all the web
servers in the cluster, it makes the administration easier. You change one
of the servers, and it will update all the other servers.
However, if one of the servers is removed from the cluster, and you try to
administrate the User Properties database, one of the web servers will not
get updated.
RESOLUTION
Update to the Microsoft Commercial Internet System (MCIS) Service Pack 1
(SP1).
Use the User Properties Database Administration tool to update the User
Properties settings. One of the servers in the registry will not be
available, then the MPS Setup program will tell you that the server is not
available and ask you if you want to remove that cluster from the server.
If at a later point you want to add the server again, reinstall MPS on
that server, and during Setup give the name of another MPS server in your
cluster.

Internet System version 1.0. This problem has been corrected in the
