MECM Site server failed to access the distribution point Monitor

MECM.ContentDistribution.Event.Monitor (UnitMonitor)

The rule generates alert when the site server fails to access the distribution point.

Knowledge Base article:

Summary

The Package Transfer Manager failed to send files to the destination server.

Causes

The distribution point might not be accessible to the Distribution Manager running on the site server.

The Distribution Manager does not have sufficient rights to the computer.

The site server account does not have the required permissions.

The distribution point server might not be connected to the LAN.

The share on the distribution point server might not be accessible.

The network load might be too high.

Resolutions

If users are currently accessing the package files on the distribution point, disconnect the users first and configuration manager will automatically retry.

Verify that distribution point server is connected to the LAN and functioning properly.

Verify that the share is visible and that the site server machine account or site system connection account has the necessary permissions to access the share.

Verify that the network is not overloaded. Verify that you can move large amounts of data across the network.

Make sure the site server machine account or the site system connection account has full access to the directory on the destination site server and the destination site server has sufficient free disk space.
