Warning in SMS_MP_CONTROL_MANAGER after change is made to SMS.mof

[HupAhh]

Hi,

I've recently made a change to my SMS.mof file so that the harware inventory reports on Internet Explorer (see lines below)

// BEGIN Internet Explorer Proxy Setting Information

[ SMS_Report (TRUE),
SMS_Group_Name ("Microsoft IE LAN Settings"),
SMS_Class_ID ("MICROSOFT|IE_LanSettings|1.0"),
Namespace("\\\\\\\\.\\\\root\\\\CIMV2\\\\Applications\\\\MicrosoftIE")]

class MicrosoftIE_LanSettings : SMS_Class_Template

{
[SMS_Report (TRUE) ]
string Proxy;
[SMS_Report (TRUE) ]
string ProxyServer;
};

// END Internet Explorer Proxy Setting Information

When I made the change I got hundred of errors in the MP_CONTROL_MANAGER log:

MP could not find some class or property definitions when processing Hinv as they are apparently missing in sms_def.mof. Unknown classes and properties have been ignored and a MIF file generated with all the classes and properties that could be found.

Possible cause: This might indicate that the report has become obsolete due to a new HW inventory policy or that a customer's private definitions haven't been properly propagated to the sms_def.mof at the PSS.
Solution: See if the missing classes or properties are genuinely missing in the current sms_def.mof and find out why the client put them in the xml report.

It seems to have settled down now and I am getting information on IE, is this error normal. If not what can I do in future to prevent it?

Thanks,
P
