Message ID: 4912 Configuration Manager cannot update the already existing object "SMS-Site-SXX" in Active Directory (XXX.XXX)

Error in component SMS_HIERARCHY_MANAGER

Possible cause: The site server's machine account may not have full control rights for the "System Management" container in Active Directory
Solution: Give the site server's machine account full control rights to the "System Management" container, and all child objects in Active Directory.

Possible cause: The Active Directory object "SMS-Site-S15" has been moved to a location outside of the "System Management" container, or has been lost.
Solution: Delete the object from its current location, and let the site create a new object.

Possible cause: The Active Directory schema has not been extended with the correct ConfigMgr Active Directory classes and attributes.
Solution: Turn off Active Directory publishing for each site in the forest, until the schema can be extended.  The schema can be extended with the tool "extadsch.exe" from the installation media.

Solution which is worked for me :


  1. Open Active Directory Users and Computers.
  2. Click View and select Advanced Features.
  3. Expand your site->System->System Management and select Properties.
  4. On the System Management Properties dialog box select the Security Tab
  5. Click Add.. on the Security Tab
  6. Click the Object Type->check Computers->click OK
  7. Type in the computer’s name and click OK
  8. Check Full Control on the Security Permissions for your SCCM machine
  9. Click the Advanced button->select the computer account->click Edit
  10. Select This object and all descendant objects in the Applies to section and click OK
  11. Restart the SMS_SITE_COMPONENT_MANAGER and service on defective server.
OR
If above mentioned settings are already there then just simply delete the instance (i.e.SMS-MP-S15-XXX.XXX ) from System Management folder.
