Article ID: 174960

Article Last Modified on 10/27/2006



APPLIES TO

  • Microsoft Systems Management Server 1.2 Standard Edition



This article was previously published under Q174960

SYMPTOMS

When Rservice is used to start a service on a target computer, it references the [Startup Parameters] section of the Rservice.ini file, if it has been defined. The parameters defined in this section are not passed to the service correctly when it is started.

WORKAROUND

You can use the Server Manager utility to start the service after it is installed. The startup parameters can be defined prior to starting the service.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Systems Management Server version 1.2. This problem was corrected in the latest Microsoft Systems Management Server 1.2 U.S. Service Pack.
