This article was previously published under Q283472

SYMPTOMS

When you install a secondary site server on a Windows 2000-based server that is also running Terminal Services in Remote Administrator mode, an event ID 7031 message may be reported in the application event log on the computer immediately after you install the server. The following event description is reported:

The SMS_BOOTSTRAP service terminated unexpectedly. It has done this 1 time(s). The following corrective action will be taken in 0 milliseconds. No action.

A second, similar event message is reported when you remove the secondary site. These events are reported by the Service Control Manager.

WORKAROUND

This event message can be safely ignored. This message does not represent an error condition and does not impair secondary site server operation.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Systems Management Server version 2.0.
