SYMPTOMS

If a Systems Management Server (SMS) 1.2 Primary site, with children, upgrades to Systems Management Server (SMS) 2.0, you may receive the following error at the child site(s):

You can ignore the error. The information reported from the child to the parent will be processed into the database.
