SMS Admin Query Operators Not Available in Localized Versions

ID: Q152146

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Systems Management Server versions 1.1, 1.2

SYMPTOMS

When you run the localized SMS Admin UI on a localized version of Windows NT, queries are not built. The Operator drop-down list box is empty.

CAUSE

The problem occurs because the operator string in queries is localized. Therefore, without the localized DLL file, you cannot create a new query. If you set the international setting (Country, Language) to a country (for example, Austria) that is not the localized version from SMS (for example, German), you will get an empty operator drop-down list box.

WORKAROUND

Set all International Settings to the localized version from SMS, for example German.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Systems Management Server version 1.1. This problem has been corrected in Systems Management Server version 1.2.
