Please Help. I have been running SMS 2 . SP1 for six months now.
One primary (parent) site with two child sites. About a month ago we changed every ip number on our lan and wan. The effect on the sms systems was catastrophic. We also moved the dhcp server onto a different server as well.
SMS Problems
1) It deinstalled itself on all clients in all three sites.
2) I tried rebuilding the sms environment from scratch and found that a number of weird things happened.
1) its shows clients assigned, that when one tries to take remote control, it says sms not installed.
I can't seem to get it to even manually load. If I use smsman.exe it says sms site not found after installing.
What I most want to do is to do a clean new installation of sms, rediscover the clients (about 550 in total over 3 sites)
and force it to re-install and get it all working again. The key things we need of sms is software/hardware inventory/ remote
control and software distribution.
Finally would building a new sms environment with ver 2.0 n sp2 cure my problems and force the reinstalltion on my clients??
Any help much appreciated.. SMS has been down for over a month now. I have wiped the sms primary Parent server and
need to know how to re-install it to get it to work.
