Management Insights - DPs in maintenance mode for 30 days

Kurt Rode 1

Hi!

I just used some of the Management Insight reports and in the Proactive Maintenance report it says that there are some DPs in maintenance mode for more than 30 days. But when I open the report it is empty. I also double checked the maintenance mode in console and via PowerShell but all DPs are active. Is there anything wrong with the report or do I miss something?

kindly,
Kurt

I also see the same thing, says action needed but no distribution point in maintenance mode for 30 days. My only thought is that I rebuilt a distribution point a while back and put it in maintenance mode, removed the DP role then removed from the site. Built the new server with the same name and installed the DP role but the maintenance mode flag is in place in database even though its not actually in maintenance mode. I even tried putting the DP that was rebuilt with the same name in and out of maintenance mode thinking it might fix it but no joy. Maybe insight is just broken as i see 4 actions needed but only 3 items that need actions.

Hello KurtRode,

It is possible that this was some incorrect alert and mu suggestion would be to Re-Evaluate the insight:

To manually reevaluate an insight, right-click the insight, and select Re-evaluate.

For more details of the evaluation, the log file for management insights is SMS_DataEngine.log on the site server.
