View products that this article applies to.

Symptoms

You use the Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) providers in Microsoft Host Integration Server 2009 to monitor systems that are running Host Integration Server 2009. When the Host Integration Server WMI provider cannot open the Host Integration Server subdomain, an access violation occurs, and the WMI Provider Host (WmiPrvSE.exe) process may stop unexpectedly. Additionally, an event that resembles the following is logged in the Application log:

Note When this problem occurs, you may find that SNA Manager has a Status Undetected status for Host Integration Server systems in the subdomain. The Status Undetected status indicates that the SNA Manage Client (Mngsli.exe) process cannot connect to the SNA Manage Agent services that are running on the Host Integration Server systems.

More Information

After you apply this update, the access violation no longer occurs if the Host Integration Server WMI provider cannot open the Host Integration Server subdomain. However, the WMI query may be unable to return accurate information if the subdomain cannot be opened. To resolve this problem, you have to investigate why the Host Integration Server management components cannot communicate with one another. The Application log may contain some event messages that you can use to help with this investigation.
