The information in this article applies to:

- Microsoft Systems Management Server versions 1.0, 1.1

SYMPTOMS
========

If a new architecture is added to the Systems Management Server database, it
does not appear in SMS Administrator until you exit and restart SMS
Administrator.

CAUSE
=====

The Systems Management Server Administrator code currently caches architecture
information and does not refresh itself when new architectures are added.

WORKAROUND
==========

Exit Systems Management Server Administrator and restart it to see newly added
architectures.

STATUS
======

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Systems Management Server
versions 1.0 and 1.1. We are researching this problem and will post new
information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
