This article was previously published under Q247444 SYMPTOMS
When using the Security Wizard in the Systems Management Server (SMS) 2.0 Administrator Console to add a global group to SMS security, you may receive the following error message:
This user or user group could not be added to the SMS Admins local group.
This user or group has been added to SMS but will not have access until it or a global group it is a member of is added to the SMS Admins local group.
See 'WBEM Security/SMS Provider section' in Chapter 4 of the SMS 2.0 Administrators Guide for more information.
Note that this symptom may occur when you add global groups if SMS is installed on a backup domain controller, but adding global groups works correctly if SMS is installed on the primary domain controller.
WORKAROUND
To work around this problem, manually add the global group to the SMS Admins local group on the site server.
MORE INFORMATION
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Systems Management Server version 2.0.
