SYMPTOMS
On Microsoft Windows 2000 Server-based computers that run Microsoft Message Queuing, you frequently receive the following message in Event Viewer: Event Type: Error

Event Source: MSMQ

Event Category: Kernel

Event ID: 2010

Description:

Cannot Route to remote site GUID because it cannot be reached using site links



CAUSE
This issue occurs if the following conditions are true:
 * All Windows 2000 Server-based computers in the enterprise are configured as routing servers.
 * Routing links are not defined.



RESOLUTION
To resolve this issue, define the routing links. To do this, follow these steps:
 * 1) Click Start, click Run, type Dssite.msc, and then click OK.
 * 2) On the View menu, click Show Services Node.
 * 3) Expand Services, right-click MsmqServices, point to New, and then click MSMQ Routing Link.
 * 4) In the Site 1 list, click the source computer that you want.
 * 5) In the Site 2 list, click the destination computer that you want.
 * 6) In the Routing link cost box, type a cost if you want to.



MORE INFORMATION
When Message Queuing cannot send messages directly, Message Queuing uses cost-based routing to forward the messages from the source computer to the destination computer. For the routing algorithm to work correctly, you must define the routing links.

By default, all routing links are assigned a cost of 1. You should only change routing link costs when you have multiple routes and you want to enforce one route instead of another route. In that case, you can assign costs that reflect the differences in the communications costs. Costs can range from 1 to 4,294,967,295.
