Symptom



A Host on a Perimeter Network that was previously able to communicate with the System Center Virtual Machine Manager 2008 server no longer can. A manual refresh of the host will result in a job failure as shown here:


Error (2910)


VMM does not have appropriate permissions to access the resource C:\Windows\system32\qmgr.dll on the %computername% server.


(Access is denied (0x80070005))


Recommended Action


Ensure that Virtual Machine Manager has the appropriate rights to perform this action.

Cause

The password used by the VMMAgent Service Account has expired, or the Service Account itself has been disabled or deleted. This may more frequently in a workgroup environment where password expiration default is set to 48 days. Additionally, if the policy ‘User must change password at next logon’ is enforced there will be an initial successful connection between the Perimeter Host and the VMM Server, followed by subsequent communication failure.
