MORE INFORMATION ================ INSTSRV is a utility contained on the Systems Management Server compact disc in the Debug\X86.bin directory. To begin the service re-creation, perform the steps below. 1. Copy INSTSRV from the compact disc to the \Sms\Site.Srv\x86.bin directory. 2. Open a command prompt window. 3. Run INSTSRV (it is an MS-DOS Menu tool). 4. Select '1. Install'. 5. Enter the service name 'SMS_SITE_CONFIG_MANAGER'. 6. Enter the domain name\account name to start the service (for example, thekop\smsadmin). 7. Type the password for the user. NOTE: The password will be displayed on the screen. 8. Enter the Systems Management Server site server name (for example, \\BOOTROOM). 9. Enter the path to the service: c:\Sms\Site.Srv\X86.Bin\Siteins.exe 10. Autostart the service during startup - 'Y'. 11. Restart the server, or go to Control Panel Services and restart the service. 12. Site Configuration Manager should re-create the remaining Systems Management Server services in the registry (SMS_HEIRACHY_MANAGER, SMS_EXECUTIVE, SMS_INVENTORY_AGENT, and SMS_PACKAGE_COMMAND_MANAGER). 13. After you have your services restored, go into the Registry Editor REGEDT32 and make backups of each of these keys by saving them to a file.
