We currently have a MOM 2005 solution where we have a MOM management group in one forest and other management groups in another forest. I have set up product connectors from MOM in the 2nd forest for alert forwarding. Source: MOM to MOM Connector Event ID: 10028 "Updating data threw an unknown SoapException. MOM master management group: XXXXX Error on: http://servername:1271/connectorservicev2.asmx Message: System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapException : Exception of type System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapException was thrown. --> Data access error. --> Timeout expired Call stack: at Microsoft.ServerManagement.MOM.MomConnector.ServiceWorker.UpdateAlertsWorker(FrameworkBase sourceMcf, Guid sourceMcfGuid, FrameworkBase destinationMcf, Guid destinationMcfGuid, Hashtable destinationHashtable, Alert[] alertUpdates, Boolean updateAlertHistoryOnly)" It does not seem to be a permissions problem as the forwarding does work to a certain degree and the errors also occur on servers in the same forest. Is there anywhere that I can change the timeout values for this SOAP connectivity please ? Thanks Nick
