unless you follow steps to configure it, users will click that button and nothing will happen (other than refresh the page). There are a few scripts floating that will handle but one supported method is to use Forefront Integration Manager (FIM) to handle the AD password reset. This article has the process

I've seen this a couple times. The full error message is "SMS SRS web service is not running on SRS Reporting point server "xxxxxxxxxx". However, the SRS is working fine, delivering reports, etc etc. So why does this error still happen?
This is a bug that was supposed to be fixed in ConfigMgr SP2. I have seen this error occur on SP2 sites, so not sure if that fix didn't make it into SP2 or some other issue is going on. Will need to research further. But, in the mean time, if you want to keep the Reporting Point component green in the console (and doesn't everybody) then you can create status filter rule. Use Source of ConfigMgr Server, use Component of SMS_SRS_Reporting_Point and MessageID of 7403. Also disable write to ConfigMgr db and enable "do not forward to status summarizers" and "do not process lower priority status filter rule".
Still planned to occur before end of calendar year 2010. The Release Candidate was released a couple weeks ago. go to connect.microsoft.com to download it.
I was asked to update an old post that referenced the health check when it was launched so may as well create new blog post referencing the RAP.
Microsoft PFE has had a ConfigMgr Health Check available for almost two years and we have delivered health checks at hundreds of Premier customers around the world. We are now in the final stages of converting that delivery into a RAP (Risk Assessment Program). The offical name will be "CMRAP (Risk and Health Assessment Program for Configuration Manager)". This delivery should be released around holiday 2010. If your organization needs a CMRAP performed please contact your MS TAM.
Also here is a link to the Facebook page for the Microsoft RAP program: http://facebook.com/MicrosoftRAPs
have gotten pinged several times by TAMs about SCSM, so this product is about to take off. Been ramping up and I'm begining to understand it. It's a complex product and has lots of moving pieces but seems to work well. I think the self-service portal is pretty slick and I see customers using that and not have to buy/build a shopping cart product. Cool stuff.
we are hiring. if you are very strong in SMS/ConfigMgr and/or MOM/SCOM, are willing to travel (but still maintain work/life balance) and are looking for a new job opportunity, shoot me an email breben@microsoft.com
