[Update: Dell will only deliver a 4.0 with this bug corrected. No intermediate release. We signed an NDA to get a hand on the 4.0 beta, but i left the company before having it. The 4.0 should be released by the end of july.]
I have an open issue with the Dell Management Pack and our regional settings. I found out the bug, the resolution, but now Dell ask me to wait for the MP V4.0 because i am the only one to report this bug.
I guess that we are not the only one to have this bug, and it's about people not going through opening a case at Dell. I will expose the issue here, hoping others will realize they are affected too. My goal is to have Dell releasing a corrected version before 4.0 that will be out in months.
The Bug is for DellStorageDiscovery.vbs:
Source: Health Service Modules
Event number: 21405
The process started at 09:29:38 failed to create System.Discovery.Data, no errors detected in the output. The process exited with 0 Command executed: "C:\WINDOWS\system32\cscript.exe" /nologo "DellStorageDiscovery.vbs" {XXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXX} {XXXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXXXX} agent.mydomain.com Working Directory: C:\Program Files\System Center Operations Manager 2007\Health Service State\Monitoring Host Temporary Files 1\1821\ One or more workflows were affected by this. Workflow name: Dell.Connections.DellStorage.Discovery Instance name: agent.mydomain.com Instance ID: {XXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXX} Management group: FIRSTMG
------
The badly function is (in red the problem):
Function CheckVBScriptEngine()
Dim bIsCompatV, var
Const VBSCRIPT_MIN_VERSION = 5.6
var = ScriptEngineMajorVersion & “.” & ScriptEngineMinorVersion
If (CInt(var)) < biscompatv =" False" biscompatv =" True"> 0 Then
CheckVBScriptEngine = Err.Number
Else
CheckVBScriptEngine = bIsCompatV
End If
End Function
The corrected function is:
Function CheckVBScriptEngine()
Dim bIsCompatV, var, sep, WshShell
Set WshShell = WScript.CreateObject(”WScript.Shell”)
sep = WshShell.RegRead(”HKCU\Control Panel\International\sDecimal”)
Const VBSCRIPT_MIN_VERSION = 5.6
var = ScriptEngineMajorVersion & sep & ScriptEngineMinorVersion
If (CInt(var)) < biscompatv =" False" biscompatv =" True"> 0 Then
CheckVBScriptEngine = Err.Number
Else
CheckVBScriptEngine = bIsCompatV
End If
End Function
PS: I also have a similar bug with the Microsoft ISA 2006 Management Pack. Microsoft acknowleged the bug and is going to deliver a new release.
