SYMPTOMS
When you send a Run Command On Workstation job that has no distribute
phase selected, a General Protection Fault (GPF) or Access Violation occurs
with the SMS Executive Service.
CAUSE
This occurs when a command line is sent to a workstation but there is no
actual package needed to perform the command. There must be at least one
file in the package source, but this source does not need to be placed
on a distribution server.
When the despooler thread of the SMS Executive attempts to manipulate the
list of distribution servers, it finds an empty list and would end
abnormally.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Systems Management Server
version 1.1. This problem has been corrected in Systems Management Server
version 1.2.
