SYMPTOMS
========

When a "Remove Package" job fails during the sending phase, no attempt to resend
the job occurs. The job status is correctly updated (retrying), but nothing is
done to retry the send operation.

WORKAROUND
==========

To work around this problem, obtain the following fix by contacting Microsoft
Technical Support or wait for the next Systems Management Server service pack.

This fix should have the following time stamp:

  04/24/98   10:55p        537,120 base4.dll (Intel)
  04/24/98   10:51p        917,264 base4.dll (Alpha)

STATUS
======

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Systems Management
Server versions 1.0, 1.1, and 1.2.


A supported fix is now available, but has not been fully regression-tested and
should be applied only to systems experiencing this specific problem. Unless you
are severely impacted by this specific problem, Microsoft recommends that you
wait for the next Service Pack that contains this fix. Contact Microsoft
Technical Support for more information.
