Hi ,
after installing The Volume Activation Management Tool (VAMT) , and add Database with name VAMT with sqlcmd :

sqlcmd -S [server name]\MSSQLSERVER
1> USE [VAMT]
2> GO
1> alter table base.GenuineStatusText alter column GenuineStatusText nvarchar(255) NULL
2> GO

I've lost the connection sccm console , After checking the log files , this is what i got :

Transport error; failed to connect, message: 'The SMS Provider reported an error.'\r\nMicrosoft.ConfigurationManagement.ManagementProvider.WqlQueryEngine.WqlQueryException\r\nThe SMS Provider reported an error.\r\n at Microsoft.ConfigurationManagement.ManagementProvider.WqlQueryEngine.WqlQueryResultsObject.<GetEnumerator>d__75.MoveNext()

{
Operation = "ExecQuery";
ParameterInfo = "SELECT * FROM SMS_Site WHERE SiteCode = 'xxx'";
ProviderName = "WinMgmt";
};

    Hello @Ahmed Yousef

    Please try to rebuild your WMI repository on the SCCM server:

    net stop winmgmt

    winmgmt /salvagerepository %windir%\System32\wbem

    winmgmt /resetrepository %windir%\System32\wbem

    Also, check the icalcs permissions on the folder: "Microsoft Configuration Manager"

    Hope this helps with your query,

    Hi, @Ahmed Yousef

    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Q&A forum.

    It seems the error is same as the below thread I have seen, you may check if the "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Configuration Manager\Logs" missing the administrators group and the system account?

    Hi, @Ahmed Yousef

    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Q&A forum.

    The "Account Unknown" should not related to the issue, I see you have "SMS Admins" in the DCOM permission, that should be enough for SCCM console to access the site database.
    For you wmi issue, you may check the article to see if it helps:
