SYMPTOMS
After a child site is detached from its parent, you may notice collections from the parent site still showing in the Administrator Console for the child site. These collections are locked and cannot be modified.



CAUSE
This situation occurs if the SMS_SQL_MONITOR (Smsdbmon.Exe) service experiences problems during the detachment process. If SMS_SQL_MONITOR fails, the SMS_COLLECTION_EVALUATOR service is not notified that the child site has been detached from the parent site, and it does not unlock parent site collections.



WORKAROUND
To work around this behavior, create a .sha file in the Colleval.box directory at the child site.



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