Symptoms
Windows tasks fail with the following error:
Destination host 'hostname.tld' (#123), IP '192.168.10.100' : Provisioning request failed. A specified class is not registered in the registration database. Also can indicate that the type of server you requested in the CLSCTX enumeration is not registered or the values for the server types in the registry are corrupt. The possible reason can be: MPF Client not registered as DCOM server. Please install POA Agent on failed node.
Cause
The issue occurs because remoteDBEngine
was set to wrong value at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\SWsoft\PEM\<hostname>
.
Resolution
Fill remoteDBEngine
with proper MPF hostname (without domain part).
