Package Status

The SMS_PackageStatus class provides a summary report of the health of packages and distribution points in your site. It is used internally by SMS Distribution Manager (a server component) and is not used directly to produce any of the Package Status information you see in the SMS Administrator console.

Administrators can distribute multiple packages concurrently to multiple destinations. SMS_PackageStatus allows monitoring when packages arrive at distribution points. All dates displayed are based on the time zone in which the SMS Administrator console is running.
