Symptom

During a Windows migration, the migration task was abnormal, and the error message "SMS.0212 Agent restarted" was displayed.

• The SMS-Agent program was manually restarted on the source server.
• After the source system account was deregistered, the SMS-Agent program exited and then was started again.

Solutions

• Solution 1
  1. In the server list on the SMS console, locate the server record and choose More > Delete Target Configuration in the Operation column.
  2. Configure a target server and start the migration again.
• Solution 2

  2. Log in to the source server, stop the SMS-Agent program, and run it again.
     

     If the SMS-Agent exits due to account deregistration, you are advised to use the SMS-Agent (Python 2) as a system service to perform the migration.

     • Windows Agent (Python 2): Double-click restart.bat in the SMS-Agent-Py2 directory to restart the SMS-Agent.
  3. Enter the AK/SK pair for the Huawei Cloud account that you are migrating to and the SMS domain name.
  4. After the Agent is started, go to the SMS console and configure a target server again.
