SUMMARY
If for any reason you find that the Systems Management Server registry entries have been removed from HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services, and there are no backups in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet00x\Services and you have not taken backups of these registry keys, you can still restore them using INSTSRV.



MORE INFORMATION
INSTSRV is a utility contained on the Systems Management Server compact disc in the Debug\X86.bin directory. To begin the service re-creation, perform the steps below.  Copy INSTSRV from the compact disc to the \Sms\Site.Srv\x86.bin directory. Open a command prompt window. Run INSTSRV (it is an MS-DOS Menu tool). Select '1. Install'. Enter the service name 'SMS_SITE_CONFIG_MANAGER'. Enter the domain name\account name to start the service (for example, thekop\smsadmin). Type the password for the user.

NOTE: The password will be displayed on the screen.</li> Enter the Systems Management Server site server name (for example, \\BOOTROOM).</li> Enter the path to the service:

c:\Sms\Site.Srv\X86.Bin\Siteins.exe

</li> Autostart the service during startup - 'Y'.</li> Restart the server, or go to Control Panel Services and restart the service.</li> Site Configuration Manager should re-create the remaining Systems Management Server services in the registry (SMS_HEIRACHY_MANAGER, SMS_EXECUTIVE, SMS_INVENTORY_AGENT, and SMS_PACKAGE_COMMAND_MANAGER).</li> After you have your services restored, go into the Registry Editor REGEDT32 and make backups of each of these keys by saving them to a file.</li></ol>
