We had an issue where
unapproved SCCM clients threw errors on SMS_MP_CONTROL_MANAGER as “MP has
rejected a policy request from GUID:XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX because it was not
approved. The operating system reported error 2147942405: Access is denied.”
The environment running on
System Center Configuration Manager 2007 R2 in mixed mode
and client approval setting as following
Possible Solutions:
To make
the client get approved by any means
Solutions suggested by colleagues:
Client repairs, Client reinstall or manually approve clients
Initial Analysis:
1.
Checked MP-IIS logs for one of the machine
which threw these errors on with IP address

Checked
MP_registrationmanger.log
This showed lots of
instances “Certificate issued to 'SMS' has expired” on MP_RegistrationManager though it wasn’t
for the above machine GUID.
Certificate issued to
'SMS' has expired.

3.
Checked Clientauth.log
This also showed messages
like 'Message rejected due to signature verification failure.'
CCMValidateAuthHeaders failed (0x80040213) to
validate headers for client 'GUID: GHJREEVJ JHGE '. ClientAuth 24/03/2014 06:27:42 16808 (0x41A8)
Message rejected due to
signature verification failure.
ClientID: GUID: GHJREEVJ
JHGE
Actions Taken:
1.
Connected to the client machine checked SMS
certificate showed as not expired. But I suspected the issue with certificate.
2. I
tried deleting the certificate and re-registering the client which fixed the
issue.
Hence there wasn’t need to
approve the client manually. Monitored the component status SMS_MP_CONTROL_MANAGER
for 2-3 hours and those messages disappeared.
