SYMPTOMS
When you run the Program Group Control (PGC) Migration Wizard, the resulting program name may be truncated, in which case you receive the following error message:

error occurred while committing data to WMI: WBEM_E_FAILED

The following message is reported in the Smsprov.log file:

The program name must be at least 1 and less than 50 characters in length.



CAUSE
This behavior occurs if the program name exceeds the maximum 50-character limit, which results in an incomplete program migration.



WORKAROUND
To work around this behavior, ensure that when you create program names, they are within the character limit of 1 to 50 characters.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article.
