You receive a message in the Alerts pane of the MOM Operator Console when you try to use MOM 2005 agentless monitoring to monitor a Windows NT 4.0-based computer
When you try to use Microsoft Operations Manager (MOM) 2005 agentless monitoring to monitor a Windows NT 4.0-based computer, you receive the following message in the Alerts pane of the MOM Operator Console:
A management pack script was unable to complete successfully.
This issue occurs because MOM agent service discovery script requires that Windows Management Instrumentation version 1.5 or a later version must be installed on the Windows NT 4.0-based computer.
The MOM agent service discovery script uses
methods in the
StdRegProv class to query information in the registry
about
the Windows NT 4.0-based computer. This information is sent to the MOM Management server and is entered into the
MOM database.
The monitored computer is then added to the
appropriate
computer groups. It is added to these groups based on the information that is contained in the
StdRegProv class.
By default, the
StdRegProv class does not exist in the version of Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) that is included in the Windows NT 4.0 operating system.
To resolve this issue, you must download and install the latest version of WMI. To download the latest version of WMI, visit the following Microsoft Web site:
If this resolution does not correct the issue, or if you experience a similar issue, make sure that WMI was installed correctly. To do this, use Wbemtest tool to verify that the
StdRegProv class exists in WMI:
- Use an account that has administrative permissions to log on to the Windows NT 4.0-based computer.
- Click Start, click Run, type wbemtest, and then click OK.
- In the Windows Management Instrumentation Tester dialog box, click Connect.
- In the Connect dialog box, type root\default in the box under Server\Namespace, and then click Login.
- In the Windows Management Instrumentation Tester dialog box, click Open Class.
- In the Get Class Name dialog box, type stdregprov, and then click OK.
The
Object Editor for StdRegProv dialog box appears. It contains the properties of the
StdRegProv class.
If the
Object Editor for StdRegProv dialog box does not appear, you must reinstall the latest version of WMI and restart the Windows NT 4.0-based computer.

Community Feedback System
Very often, it takes hours to solve a problem. Very often, you've looked high
and low, and have tried a lot of solutions. When you finally found it, chances
are, it was because someone else helped you. Here's your chance to give back.
Use our community feedback tool to let others know what worked for you and what
didn't.
Please also understand that the community feedback system is not warranted to be
correct, it's simply a system that we've built to let people try and help each
other. If something in a feedback response doesn't make sense to you, or you're
not comfortable making changes that the feedback talks about (like registry
edits), please consult a professional.
Thank you for using kbAlertz.com Feedback System.
