SYMPTOMS
When Package Command Manager (PCM) detects a mandatory job, it is possible
for someone to archive the job while the 5 minute countdown timer is still
running. If this happens, there are several resulting problems which
prevent PCM from being able to execute the job.
WORKAROUND
If someone archives a mandatory job just before execution, delete the
PCMHIST.REG file on the client computer. This will force PCM to put the job
into the pending commands folder and re-enable the job for execution.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Systems Management Server
version 1.0. This problem was corrected in Systems Management Server
version 1.1.
