Hi All,
Got a real odd one. Our Altiris server has been working fine for ages. However recently it started to do some odd things. Basically, if you assigned a job to a new PC, the tasks within that job will be blank. If you reboot the server, the tasks reapear and the job runs ok.
I tried to reinstall the Deployment server and this didn't fix the problem. I uninstalled the server totally but this only caused more problems as I wasn't able to even reinstall the DS.
Luckilly, I had a spare server sitting around doing nothing. So I have done the following to it.
1) Installed 2008r2 and SQL 2008 SP1
2) Installed DS 6.9 SP3
So now with a totally blank database, no PC's but just my old imported jobs, I still get the same problem.
Symantec support have remoted onto my server and they have said they can see no problems with my setup. We even reinstalled DS again whilst they were connected. The support chap is going to speak to the US to see if they have any ideas.
Has anyone seen this problem before. My current setup is
Dell Poweredge R300, 12GB Ram
Server 2008r2 64bit
SQL 2008 Standard 64bit with SP1
DS 6.9 SP3
Any help greatly received.
Many thanks
