You cannot track the progress of setup steps that occur after the computer restarts when you distribute a package in Systems Management Server 2003 (886006)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Systems Management Server 2003
SYMPTOMSIn Microsoft Systems Management Server (SMS)
2003, if you distribute a package that has more than one setup step, and the computer must restart between the steps, you cannot track the progress of
the steps that occur after the computer restarts. Status
messages are only generated for an advertisement until the computer restarts. No status messages are generated for the setup steps that are performed after the computer restarts. Therefore, the status
that is reported may be inaccurate if these setup steps do not succeed.CAUSEThis problem occurs because no Management Information Format (MIF) file is generated after
the computer restarts. Therefore, Systems Management Server 2003 cannot track the setup
status after the computer restarts.STATUSMicrosoft
has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed
in the "Applies to" section.
