ConfigMgr 2007 Status: SMS Wake On LAN failed to send wakeup packets for some targeted clients

SMSv4_Status__SMS_Wake_On_LAN_failed_to_send_wakeup_packets_for_some_targeted_clients_1_Rule (Rule)

Knowledge Base article:

Summary

A network-level failure has occurred when wake-up packets were being sent to the computers that were targeted by an advertisement or deployment.

Causes

Failure to send wake-up packets is caused by basic network connectivity problems on the site server computer. This failure can be a transient failure.

Resolutions

Ensure that the site server computer has reliable basic network connectivity.

Ensure that the retry count in the Wake-On-LAN pacing controls is set to a value larger than 1 (the default is 3). A setting greater than 1 ensures that wake-up packets are sent multiple times, increasingly the likelihood that all target computers will be awakened even though a transient network failure has occurred. To adjust the retry count, navigate to System Center Configuration Manager > Site Database > Site Management. Right-click <site code> – <site name> and then click Properties. On the Wake On LAN tab, click Advanced. By using these controls, you can adjust the retry count.
