When you use the management point API to submit data to a Microsoft Systems Management Server (SMS) 2003 management point, you experience the following symptoms:
- The report data does not appear in the SMS database.
- The following error information appears in the hardware inventory management point handler log file:
Inv: Client Id does not match with body GUID
- %WINDIR%\system32\ccm\logs
- SMS_CCM\Logs
You experience this problem if you try to submit data to a management point that is running in SMS 2003 with Service Pack 1 (SP1) or a later service pack installed.
When you use the management point API to submit data to a management point that has SMS 2003 SP1 or a later service pack installed, you must use the
SetClientID method before you call the
Post method. To call the
SetClientID method, you must include the current Smsmsgapi_h file and the current Smsmsgapi_i_c file in the project.
To update these files, apply this hotfix to the computer that SMS 2003 SDK 3.1 is installed on. After these files are updated, make sure that you include them in the project. After you include these files, you must query the
ISmsMessage2 interface to access
SetClientID. The parameter that is passed to
SetClientID should be the SMS GUID of the client. This GUID must match the GUID that is listed in the contents of the inventory report.
