SMS.1205 Failed to Load WMI
Symptom
When you started the Agent, the message "SMS.1205 Failed to load WMI" was reported.
Possible Causes
Files related to Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) are missing or damaged and need to be restored. In Windows, the Agent uses the WMI module to collect source server details, such as the CPU, memory, and disk information.
- WMI will be stopped during the restoration. Confirm that stopping WMI will not affect services on the source server. The restoration will also change the files on the source server, which may involve certain risks. It is recommended that you perform the operations on a cloned source server first.
- If the issue persists, you can create an ECS by following the instructions provided in Creating a Windows ECS from an Image.
Restoring WMI
- Right-click This Computer in the navigation pane on the left in your file explorer and choose Manage from the shortcut menu.
- On the Computer Management page, choose Services and Applications > Services. Stop Windows Management Instrumentation.
- Change C:\Windows\System32\wbem\repository to C:\Windows\System32\wbem\repository_old.
- Start Windows Management Instrumentation.
- Open the cmd window as administrator.
- Go to the C:\Windows\System32\wbem\ directory.
cd C:\Windows\System32\wbem\
- Restore WMI.
