APPLIES TO


 * Microsoft Systems Management Server 2003

SYMPTOMS
If you use Client Push Installation to push a Microsoft Systems Management Server (SMS 2003) advanced client from an SMS 2003 administrator console, the Advanced Client Setup program may not use the closest SMS management point to download the client software. Network performance may decrease significantly in your SMS hierarchy if you connect a site over a slow link (for example, you connect it over a 56 K connection), or if it manages many clients through a single proxy management point.



CAUSE
This problem may occur if you push the client from an SMS administrator console that is connected to a site where the SMS client is not assigned.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in SMS 2003.
