Event ID 1103 from source HealthService cannot be found.

Question

Hello All,

We have SCOM 2019 however in one of our SCOM management server we see the below Event iD in Application logs kindly assist us on this.

The description for Event ID 1103 from source HealthService cannot be found. Either the component that raises this event is not installed on your local computer or the installation is corrupted. You can install or repair the component on the local computer.

If the event originated on another computer, the display information had to be saved with the event.
The following information was included with the event:

SCOM group Name: XXXX
15
1
The message resource is present but the message was not found in the message table

Event ID 1103
Source: Application

Hi,

the event generelly refers to workflows (rules, monitors, disocveries) failing and not being loaded. The exact description is:

"Summary: xxxx rule(s)/monitor(s) failed and got unloaded, 1 of them reached the failure limit that prevents automatic reload. Management group “xxx”. This is summary only event, please see other events with descriptions of unloaded rule(s)/monitor(s)."

In your case, sonsidering that the events do not contain the description in clear text, I assume it is:

"Summary: 15 rule(s)/monitor(s) failed and got unloaded, 1 of them reached the failure limit that prevents automatic reload. Management group “xxx”. This is summary only event, please see other events with descriptions of unloaded rule(s)/monitor(s)."

You need to identify what rules or monitors are exactly failing. For this purpose you need to find the other related events and do some debugging. Here is a nice giude on how to approach this:
