Backward Compatibility Script Error

[Pablo José LEIVA]

Hi, I have this problem in OpsMgr SP1 (6.0.6278.0) randomly.
Anyone know how to resolve?

Backward Compatibility Script Error

An error occurred on line 105 while executing script 'MOM Backward
Compatibility Service State Monitoring Script' Source: Microsoft VBScript
runtime error Description: The remote server machine does not exist or is
unavailable: 'GetObject' One or more workflows were affected by this.
Workflow name: System.Mom.BackwardCompatibility.ServiceStateMonitoring
Instance name: xxx.xxx.xxx Instance ID:
{559966C7-7B7C-D50C-8266-B065E3AFC53F} Management group: xxx

Thanks a lot.

Are these alerts coming from a cluster or remotely managed Machine?
The particular line that is failing is a WMI call to get WINMGMTS from the
target computer. My guess is the cluster virtual node or remote machine is
offline or otherwise unavailable at the time the WMI query is run from the
workflow.

If it is only on new agent machines tt is possible that the WMI query is
failing because the permissions that agent machine uses are not high enough
to make a remote WMI query but the permissions issue is resolved at a later
time.

These alerts came from a managed machine, but not only one, various machines.
How can I verify if I have permissions to execute the WINMGMTS call?
Thanks.

Information on how to setup DCom to allow remote connections can be found
at: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa393266(VS.85).aspx
Firewalls can also block the WMI calls so you might need to check and see if
the remote computer firewall will allow connection
For more general information on WMI Remote access you might try
