Operations Manager fails to communicate with DCR server

After a recent restart of the Operations Manager server we found it is no longer able to manage devices. When attempting to open a applet that depends on DCR connection I receive an error " Error in communicating with DCR Server. DCR Server may be down. Please start the DCR Server and refresh the page." I have attached the DCR logs and pdshow from the server. Has anyone experienced this issue, and if so, how can I correct it. Any help would be appreciated.

I am constantly seeing this error at multiple sites on Windows Server 2012 and 2012 R2 Standard and DataCenter.
I have counted over 50 different server I manage with services such as domain controller, hyper-v, file servers, exchange 2013, SQL 2008/2012, and print servers.
I have seen it happen on machine that have been in production for over 2 years and to machines that were just created last week.
It is happening on metal, hyper-v and esx vmware servers.
It is happening when the machine have updates waiting or no updates, or after updates have been applied and awaiting a restart.
It is happening on Dell PowerEdge server, HP Proliant servers and IBM servers.
It is happening on servers with Intel and AMD chip-sets.
It is happening on machines that are a part of a domain or in a workgroup.
It is happening on machines with AV of Bitdefendor, Trend Micro, Vipre, Microsoft Endpoint, and Symantec Endpoint.
Only a restart will fix it.
I have ran process monitor on several of the problem machines and I cannot find anything.
Since I have only started seeing this about 6 month ago it must be a Windows update causing it.

CBS failed to communicate with other server

Hi All,
I have created one track and I have imported it in NWDS. In NWDS I have created one new DC and one sample WD project under that newly created DC, it has asked to create new activity. There I am successfully created new activity and my application is working fine. When I want to checkin the activity it is giving server communcation failure exception. The excpeiton I am getting is " Activation failed: CBS Server Error: CBS failed to communicate with some other server( internal code: COMMUNICATION_ERROR)". What are the steps I need to take to resolve the issue.

Error in communicating with DCR server (Operations Manager 8.5)

Hi,
I just installed Operations Manager 8.5 on a new server. And, although I'm able to login to the OM, I'm unable to add any devices to the DCR. When attempting to add the device the following error is returned:
"Error in communicating with DCR Server
DCR Server may be down. Please start DCR server and then refresh the page. "
The same error is returned when an attempt is made toaccess the screen to change the mode (standalone/master/slave.) However, according to pdshow output DCRServer is up and running:
Process= DCRServer
State = Running normally
Pid    = 9220
RC     = 0
Signo = 0
Start = 7/29/2011 2:46:33 PM
Stop   = Not applicable
Core   = Not applicable
Info   = DCRServer is up and running
I've browsed the site and tried all suggestions for LMS since I didn't see any for OM. No success.
Any/all suggestions are much appreciated.
Kind regards,
Bart

It appears the answer is rather simple. According to a trusted source who works for a Cisco training partner, one must wait before even attempting a login into OM.
Apparently, it takes about 25 to 30 minutes for all the services to start. Any attempt to login to the OM may corrupt the database. This is based on CiscoWorks. When command "net stop crmdmgtd" is issued it takes about 5 minutes to stop the service and a confirmaiton that the service was stopped is displayed. However, when starting the service with "net start crmdmgtd" there is no confirmation that it started successfully. One may look into ":\ program Files\CSCOpx\objects\dmgt\ready" directory for a _lock file." As long as the lock file is present one shouldn't use the browser to login. However, I was advised the best approach is to restart the service and give it 30 minutes.
It worked for me
Kind regards,
Bart.

DPM failed to communicate with the protection agent on DPM 2010 SERVER because the agent is not responding. (ID 43 Details: Internal error code: 0x8099090E)

Hi everyone,
Backup jobs for protected members are intermittently failing with the following error on the DPM server:
DPM failed to communicate with the protection agent on <DPM 2010 SERVER> because the agent is not responding. (ID 43 Details: Internal error code: 0x8099090E)
Why does the DPM server failing to see it's own DPM agent cause the backup job for another server to fail? One day a backup will work fine, the next it may fail; and the next back to normal again...
The following error is recorded in the Service Control Manager event log on the DPM server just prior to the above error:
A timeout was reached (30000 milliseconds) while waiting for the DPMRA service to connect.
Thank you.
With regards,
Rob

Hello,
I have read these entire postings and see that my problems match most of the above problems.
I believe we have tried all of the ideas in this blog and lots of other ideas from other forums and internet searches.
We have about 80 small databases protected and set at 15 minute incremental and most will work but some fail. When they fail the most common, but not only error, is something like "DPM
failed to communicate with the protection agent on <DPM 2010 SERVER> because the agent is not responding. (ID 43 Details: Internal error code: 0x8099090E)". The alert is inactivated in the DPM Console, and the backups resume as normal."
Since later jobs are successful I thought all was well. All was well until I went to restore from incremental backups. We worked for two days (day and night work) to restore
from a corrupted virtual disk on our SQL Server 2008 R2. I suspect DPM had something to do with the corrupted virtual disk. All I know is that we never had this problem until installing DPM. Here is what we encountered when we went to restore
from the protection points:
* Restore jobs take a minimum of 15 minutes for jobs that are 45 MB or 2 GB.
* If you pick a backup from the list of recovery points that is not valid the job runs for 15 minutes and then "Failed".
* You cannot rerun the job because SQL Server 2008 has the table being recovered as <tablename> (recovering) and a retry will not work. Of course time is wasted while waiting
to see if it worked.
* Eventually you realize that even after dropping the table in the (recovering) mode in SQL that the restore point must be bad or possibly one of this failed recovery points.
* So begins the quest to start restoring recovery points one by one and 15 minutes by 15 minutes until you find one that actually restores to a SQL Instance.
* If you have 80 of these to do and you average trying three recovery points and each takes 15 minutes, not to mention the time to drop the table in SQL, well that time adds up to 3,600
minutes of trial and error. 60 hours of trial and error, wow not much of a savings using DPM over a SQL backup plan.
* And then you have to explain to your customers that their databases were restored but you do not know at what point the DB was restored.
All in all it seems like DPM concept is great but like many backups the backup plan looks good on paper but actually restoring a backup is quite a different matter.
I don't know if anyone has ever solved the problems presented in this forum but if they have then I wish they would post and if no one has solved the problem then shame on DPM.
Good luck everyone, but I for one have spent about two months on trying to protect and restore consistently. I have never had one day of consistent and reliable restore points. I
am going back to sql management plans for my backups. I have never, in 10 years had a sql generated backup fail me. Never.

Operations Manager Failed to Access the Windows Event Log and management server is showing warning state

Hi,
I am monitoring AD server from SCOM 2012 R2. My management server goes into waning state. When i run Health explorer then it come back in the healthy state but after some time it again goes into warning state. After seeing alert i found that a alert is coming
again and again i.e. Operations Manager Failed to Access the Windows Event Log.The description of alert is mention below
The Windows Event Log Provider is still unable to open the DhcpAdminEvents event log on computer 'nc2vws12ad5.corp.nathcorp.com'.
The Provider has been unable to open the DhcpAdminEvents event log for 64080 seconds.
Most recent error details: The RPC server is unavailable.
Please suggest me how to resolve this so that my management server will again come back in healthy state.
Thanks
Abhishek

Hi Abhishek,
As i mentioned earlier the Alert resolution says the same points.
Can you give details on the below ?
Is there really a log named "Dhcpadminevents" in the MS's Event viewer ?
Did you recently configure any new alert where you mentioned "Dhcpadminevents"
as a event log location ?
If yes then what is the target you selected for the rule / monitor there ?
Can you post the results for analysis ?

CBS failed to communicate with some other server.

Dear All,
We are facing this error when we are trying to activate a request in
NWDS & trying to check in.
Error:Activation failed: CBS Server Error: CBS failed to communicate
with some other server.( internal code: COMMUNICATION_ERROR)
Just for your information, we had changed the password for nwdi_cmsadm
few days back and then followed a note896427 and then had fixed the
error.
The NWDI_CMSADM password problem was solved and the transports were
working very fine till today. But today afternoon when the developer
tried to activate the request in NWDS, he got this error. Can you
please let me know the problem.
We are stuck and not able to go ahead.
Thanks in advance.
Warm Regards,

Hello,
I am getting this error :
CBS Server Error: CBS failed to communicate with some other server( internal code: COMMUNICATION_ERROR)
while importing ESS into Dev. I have a user created called cmsadmin and has all the permissions/roles assigned. other files are already imported (epbuildt, pcuigp,epbuildt,sap-jtechs, sap-jee). Only this file is failing.
I have seen the Notes about user/password upgrade. But we are on 04s sp14. and i have this user cmsadmin .
Please advise.

Error: "Verification Failed" Could not communicate with the server.

"Verification Failed" Could not communicate with the server.
I get this message every time I go to Icloud in setting menu.
also my contact are not in sync (empty on Ipad)
What does this message mean, and how do I solve it.
Everything else works (Autodesk Draw also works with Icloud and it works fine)
Mail ok
Downloading from appstore ok (also after password)
Please provide me with a solution due to this problem I can't get my contacts on my new ipad (at least that is what I think)

Ok I got it working... the Ipad stores your password at different locations. So changing it once does not do the job. I thought the Ipad had the Single Sign On function for the apple password.
So make sure that you not only change your password in "the shop" but also in the setting menu (general) and icloud menu.
this helped for me, I had to let go the Single Sign On thought first....

Hi,
This issue most likely is related to a communication problem with the database or a corruption as we can see from the logs :
2010/11/21 19:44:41 main ani ERROR POStore: Failed resolving object because: java.lang.NullPointerException
2010/11/21 19:44:41 main ani ERROR AniMain: java.lang.NullPointerException
ANI Server failed to load from the database.
Please stop and restart the system. You may need to re-initialize the database.
If this does not work, please contact technical support.
The next step is to re-initialize the Campus Manager database. This procedure will delete all the records and maps that you have in Campus Manager, you would need to run a new Campus Data Collection and User Tracking Acquisition to have clean and fresh database information.
If that ok with you, you can try the below steps to re-initialize the Campus database. By doing this, it will not effect any other database of LMS will clean Campus Manager database.
+) Stop the daemon manager:
net stop crmdmgtd
+) cd CSCOpx\bin\
+) Type the following command (case sensitive):
perl dbRestoreOrig.pl dsn=ani dmprefix=ANI
+) Start the daemon manager:
net start crmdmgtd
Now, wait another 15 minutes and wait for dmgtd.lock file to release from location CSCOpx\objects\dmgtd\ready.
Now check the status of ANIServer with command :- pdshow ANIServer ( case sensitive)
it should have the status Busy with Flag set.

Operations manager failed to run a wmi query for wmi events (0x800706ba)

Hi everyone,
I've been working on this issue for a while and I am still no closer to finding out what the problem is. If anybody can offer any other advice or things to check, I'm all ears.
I'm running SCOM 2012 R2 with UR2, and the Cluster Management Pack v6.0.7063.0
My problem is on one particular batch of cluster servers where I am getting the following error.
Name: Operations Manager failed to run a WMI query for WMI events
Alert Description:
Module was unable to enumerate the WMI data
Error: 0x800706ba
Details: The RPC server is unavailable
Workflow name: Microsoft.Windows.Cluster.Node.StateMonitoring
Instance Name: servername.domain.local
Instance ID: {instance_id}
Management group: SCOM_Management_Grp_Name
I am getting this alert regardless of whether I run the Windows Cluster Action Account as Local System, or as a domain user with full local admin privileges on all the cluster nodes.
When looking at the management pack and the workflow in particular (Microsoft.Windows.Cluster.Node.StateMonitoring), I can see that it's trying to access
MSCluster_Node in the root\MSCLUSTER WMI namespace.

I can confirm that I am able to browse the MSCluster_Node class locally, as well as remotely using WMIEXPLORER and WBEMTEST,
however it only works when I set the Authentication Level to
Packet Privacy. If I do not select Packet Privacy, a WMI event log error 5605 is logged on the remote servers application log that says...
The root\mscluster namespace is marked with the RequiresEncryption flag. Access to this namespace might be denied if the script or application does not have the appropriate authentication level. Change the authentication level to Pkt_Privacy
and run the script or application again.
I can confirm that all firewalls are turned off, and there are no firewalls between the management servers and the agents in question. AV exclusions have been done and appear to be in place. The nodes are all Windows 2008 R2 with SP1. As
far as I can tell there is plenty of memory available on each of the nodes in question (50%+) of RAM is available.
If I manually run the "Discover the Windows Server 2008 R2 Cluster Components" task in the Cluster Service State section of the management pack in the Monitoring Pane in the console, on the nodes in question - the discovery runs successfully.
Does anybody have any other ideas or suggestions I could try?
Many thanks in advance,
Noel.

Dreaded "Operations Manager failed to start a process" error (2012 R2)

I know this error has been covered many times, and on many topics, but this time mine is slightly different.   It's
NOT the
"SCOMpercentageCPUTimeCounter" error covered by Kevin Holman.
Also, I am running SCOM 2012 R2 UR4 (7.1.10226.1046) and everything seems correctly patched (MS and agents), like
suggested by Nicole Welch and Kevin Holman as well.
So my environment is a fresh installation of SCOM 2012 R2, and I am transferring to this new Management Group, the monitored servers from our old SCOM 2012 "R1" (which I did not upgrade but rather made a brand new independent install). So
all servers aren't migrated yet, but I would like to solve this error before. This error did NOT happen in "R1", nor was it overridden (I imported the exact same Management Packs anyway).
On 2012 R2, it happens on almost all new monitored machines, mainly Read-Only Domain Controllers (RODCs).
Here is the kind of alert text I am getting:
Het om 10:10:15 gestarte proces is beëindigd als gevolg van een uitvoerverzamelfout als gevolg van fout 0x80070057 :
The parameter is incorrect.
; mogelijk zijn er gegevens verloren gegaan.

RODC02.mydomain.be (objectCategory=DMD) false 4 {9E253FCB-8AAF-491F-CCA3-E632C6C2800C}
Werkmap: C:\Program Files\Microsoft Monitoring Agent\Agent\Health Service State\Monitoring Host Temporary Files 193\24788\
Dit is van invloed op een of meer werkstromen.
Werkstroomnaam: Microsoft.Windows.Server.2008.AD.DomainController.GCSearchTime.Monitor
Exemplaarnaam: RODC02
Our servers have Belgian (Dutch) regional settings, hence the language. But check out the highlighted info in bold.
The related event Number (in Alert Context) is 21404. Most other articles about this, mention 21402 or 21403. I suppose they all must be related but still, it's a new one here.
There you have the failing VBS file. I checked all alerts and there seem to be different files concerned overall. Other examples:
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Monitoring Agent\Agent\Health Service State\Monitoring Host Temporary Files 233\22737\AD_Database_and_Log.vbs    (from almost all RODCs)
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Monitoring Agent\Agent\Health Service State\Monitoring Host Temporary Files 196\19876\Microsoft.Windows.Server.Legacy.FreeSpace.vbs
(also from an RODC)
C:\Program Files\Microsoft System Center 2012 R2\Operations Manager\Server\Health Service State\Monitoring Host Temporary Files 5891\338282\Microsoft.Windows.Server.CPUUtilization.Monitortype.vbs 95 15
SCOM02.mydomain.be 1.4119384288787842     (this one is from my second Management Server..)
Repeat count of the alert is 1 to 2 a day, so it's not nightmareish, but still, requires to be fixed. I suspect that even if there is a different VBS file concerned, since the eventID and the alert text are the same, the repeat count will just increase,
not showing the last actual VBS concerned.
I connect to each of these servers, and browse to the directory containing the file, and the folder is there, the file is there. The error text mentions incorrect parameters but they still seem OK to me.
I found something which might be worth noting: when browsing to the directory, be it on an RODC or on the SCOM server, I get a permission popup requiring some admin rights to do so - although I am using my domain admin (+SCOM+SQL+local
admin everywhere) account:
SCOM services use the Local System account to run, on every machine. I thought Local System shouldn't be concerned with these permissions popups, but normally the domain/local admins aren't either, yet I am.
The "Health service" folder is the only one from the "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Monitoring Agent\Agent" folder to be concerned with this; I can browse without trouble to any other directory there.
After a SCOM service stop, I renamed the "Health Service state" folder (as you can see on the screenshot, there is a "Health Service State bak" folder) and let the service recreate it after a restart, to ensure it was clean and with
appropriate permissions , but it doesn't help.
Might that be a clue?
Or else what? I'm getting confused and don't find a suitable solution.

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you got error when communicating to the server.
This happens when crawler is not able to connect to the server. Make sure server name is correct. Couple of steps to troubleshoot it
You should be able to ping the server from the server having crawl component. Make sure there is an entry for the server in the host file under c:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc folder.
          Ping <servername>
      2. You should be able to connect to the server using telnet command
Telnet< servername> <port number>
More information:
Troubleshooting of FAST Search Configuration
If the issue still exists, you can delete the old search application and recreate from the beginning.
You can also reset the index and do a full crawl after.
Here is a similar thread for your reference:

OAM11g R2-SEVERE: Failed to communicate with any of configured AccessServer

After Installation of OAM11gR2, when i try to start the weblogic server and managed server below message is displaying"SEVERE: Failed to communicate with any of configured Access Server, ensure that it is up and running."
But i am able to access OAM console and do the confuguration on LDAP store.
Then why this message is displaying and it will cause any issues further?

see if this helps:
The issue is due specific settings for IAMSuiteAgent agent in WLS console
In WLS console -> Security Realms ->myrealm ->Providers - >IAMSuiteAgent ->Provide Specific - there was "localhost:5575" set as Primary Access Server. >> change Primary Access Server to be : > for current case ServerName2:5575
Restart OAM managed server and Weblogic AdminServer

This happens for many workflows. I can not for the life of me find what access is being denied on. Any help would be great.
I have the cluster run-as profile configured to use a domain account as well as the local agent to use a domain account that has administrative rights to the clusters.
Thanks,

Yes, in a last ditch effort to over come this access denied I made my Action Account a domain admin and configured the agent default account from local system to the domain action account. nothing has worked for me.

Operations Manager failed to run a WMI query-Invalid class

First try it with WBEMTEST to see what is going with the WMI class. The error you are getting usually means WMI misses that class and you should load the mof again/ maybe rebuild the entire repository (careful as the windows files are all located
on 1 folder, but applications tend to store it in their own folders, like citrix, ibm, etc).
Try to run this command:
mofcomp "<Programfiles>\Citrix\System32\Citrix\WMI\ .Mof file for citrix"
{citrixProv.XP10FR3.mof, metaframeProv.XP10FR3.mof, and mgmt.XP10FR4.mof files}
Then, run the WBEMTest again and the namespace should be returned successfully. Then restarting the health service on agent.
