The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

SCCM client site unsuccessful error

Asked by nwccsadmin in MS System Center

Tags: , , ,

I am attemtping to get SCCM 2007 running on our domain but continue to get the error "Automatic site code discovery was unsuccessful" when manaully trying to set the site code since it did not on the client push.
This is a new install of SCCM, no upgrades from earlier versions and we are at svcpck1.
The install seemed to go smooth.
This is a single domain.
I have all systems populated as well as all users.
I am using active directory and have updated the schema and based on research all the items are present in AD.
SMS-MP-NWC-PHANTOM      mSSMSManagementPoint            
SMS-NWC-2304262662-2304262662      mSSMSRoamingBoundaryRange            
SMS-NWC-2304263680-2304278526      mSSMSRoamingBoundaryRange            
SMS-Site-NWC      mSSMSSite
I have boundaries currently set to our default first site.
Have also tried IP range. (No luck)
Their was NO SMS service account created for the SCCM server in the domain.
(assumed SMS&_PHANTOM)
The sitecomp.log states that my server,phantom, is the default management point.
I have not setup SLP in WINS because of using AD.
When manaually trying to assign the site code I have tried putting in our dns suffix for the assignment below section but it does not help.
I have tried finding the DCOM entry for client on the SCCM server to change the rights on it mentioned in several other threads but that entry does not exist. (Can't find that thread again to be more specififc).
Out of these logs:

sitecomp.log
clientlocations.log
locationservice.log
ClientIDManagerStartup.log

Only the sitecomp.log exists.
Do I need the SMS&_PHANTOM account, if so can I just create it and the system will use it?
Should I add this account to the local admin group of each client?
Do I need to add this account to the AD items created when extending the schema?


Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
