SYMPTOMS

When trying to start the SMS Administrator Console, an error may be encountered
containing the following information:

  MMCAdminUI WBEM Error: (Error executing query (T_WbemSyncQueryToContainer))

  Error : WBEM_E_FAILED Operation: ExecQuery ParameterInfo: select SiteCode,

CAUSE
=====

This error message can be caused by the SQL Server being out of available user
connections.

WORKAROUND
==========

To resolve this problem, increase the number of SQL Server user connections. To
do this, perform the following steps:

1. Start SQL Server Enterprise Manager.

2. Right-click the SQL Server server name and click Configure on the shortcut
  menu.

3. In the Server Configuration/Options dialog box, scroll to the User
  Connections entry and increase the number of connections in the Current
  column.

After making this change, you must stop and start the SQL Server service for the
change to take effect. You can stop and start the service through the SQL Server
Service Manager, Control Panel Services, or the command line with the "net stop
mssqlserver" and "net start mssqlserver" commands.

STATUS
======

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Systems Management Server
version 2.0.
