SMS: NT_Logon_Server_Manager Enumerates All Shares on Domain Controllers During Maintenance Cycle (235762)


The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Systems Management Server 2.0

SYMPTOMS

During each maintenance cycle of Systems Management Server 2.0, the Windows NT Logon Server Manager component attempts to enumerate all of the shares on Windows NT domain controllers. This can consume available network bandwidth on slow links if any of these shares are not available.

An example would be servers that have empty but shared CD-ROM drives or jukeboxes.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Systems Management Server version 2.0. This problem has been corrected in the latest U.S. service pack for Systems Management Server version 2.0.
