Cannot Use the InstallMcsApps Folder to Deploy Software to Agents (318311)



The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Operations Manager 2000

This article was previously published under Q318311

SYMPTOMS

Files that you copy into the %ProgramFiles%\Microsoft Operations Manager 2000\OnePoint\InstallMcsApps folder are copied down to the agent on installation by the Microsoft Operations Manager (MOM) 2000 Agent Manager. However, you cannot use this process to deliver software to agent computers.

CAUSE

The use of the %ProgramFiles%\Microsoft Operations Manager 2000\OnePoint\InstallMcsApps folder to transfer files to the MOM agent is only supported when you use it to transfer MOM-related files and configuration information. There is no support for using the process that is described in the "Symptoms" section of this article to deliver software to agent computers.

STATUS

This behavior is by design.
