-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The information in this article applies to:

- Microsoft Systems Management Server version 1.2 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS
========

RSERVICE Total Failures never equate to more than 1, regardless of the number of
failures.

Reading through the verbatim log, you can determine how many and which computers
failed, but the summary at the bottom of the log or the screen equals 1
regardless of whether there are a number of failures indicated by "Total
Failures".

STATUS
======

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Systems Management Server
version 1.2. This problem has been corrected in the latest U.S. service pack for
Systems Management Server version 1.2. For information on obtaining the service
pack, query on the following word in the Microsoft Knowledge Base (without the
