SCOM 2022 UR1 - Cannot update agents

Question

Hi,
I applied SCOM 2022 Ur1 as per install instructions.
I then went into the 'Pending Management' section and selected all the agents and clicked approve.
I used the 'other account' and typed in the account details. When I click 'Update' the console crashes - every single time.
If I select all my agents and then click 'Approve Pending agent' and supply my account details - it ignores my account and uses the default action account.
Just wondering if Im the only one with these errors?
Cheers
David Z

Hi David,

the approval won't work if your agents have been manually installed. It will work only if you have Push-installed theose from SCOM and also if RPC Ports aren't blocked.
There are also some specifics, related to that as per Kevin Holman's guide. Here is what I mean:

No.1

No.2

and last, but not least:
No.3

Can you please go through all this and test again. Please let me know what the outcome is. Thanks in advance!

Answer 2

I know about the approval and manual install bit. It was the console crashing that was the issue.
And looks like Microsoft knows about it according to Kevins post.
