ConfigMgr 2007 Status: Site Component Manager could not find NTFS partition on site system

SMSv4_Status__Site_Component_Manager_could_not_find_NTFS_partition_on_site_system_1_Rule (Rule)

Knowledge Base article:

Summary

The Configuration Manager Site Component Manager could not find an NTFS partition on site system "%1" to hold the Configuration Manager server components' files. Configuration Manager status message 1049 was detected.

Causes

The site system does not contain an NTFS partition.
The site system is not exporting the default drive letter shares, such as "%1\C$", "%1\D$", and so on.
The site system is turned off, not connected to the network, or not functioning properly.
The Site Component Manager does not have sufficient access rights to remotely administer the site system.
Network problems are preventing the Site Component Manager from properly accessing the site system.

Resolutions

Using the Windows NT Disk Administrator, create an NTFS partition on the site system, or convert an existing FAT partition to NTFS.
You might have disabled the default drive letter shares for security purposes. Configuration Manager requires these shares. Re-enable these shares by using the Windows NT Disk Administrator.
Verify that the site system is turned on, connected to the network, and functioning properly.
Verify that the Site System Connection accounts are properly configured to allow Configuration Manager to remotely administer the site system.
Investigate and correct any problems on your network.
