CAUSE
Although these error messages appear to be problems with the Administrator console or Microsoft Management Console (MMC), investigation has only shown these messages to appear where there are genuine connectivity or site system problems.
WORKAROUND
Below are two examples that you can use as clues in troubleshooting these errors and preventing the error messages:
- The Line 346 error may occur if an Administrator console is connected to a remote SQL Server database and the SQLExecutive and MSSQLServer services are stopped. An attempt to refresh at certain levels will cause this error.
- The Line 107 error may occur if the Administrator console is connected to a remote SQL Server database and the SQL Server hard disk partition fails.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Systems Management Server version 2.0.
