Kevin, Thanks for posting this article. Looks like the recommendations are the same as for SCOM 2012 management servers. So if I am planning to upgrade my existing SCOM configuration from 2012 to 2016 will the registry tweaks that I currently have set on my management servers remain, or will I have to tweak them? Thanks- Anonymous

Historically - the "upgrades" actually do an uninstall/reinstall.... so it is possible registry entries will get wiped out. I'd absolutely go back and re-verify these after an upgrade.

I have a Data Warehouse issue in my new SCOM 2016 environement, where the RMS is a 2016 server data center edition. The reg key path you mentioned to modify the DW command timedout is not present. I have both DB and DW on a single server and all my reg key path shows is HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft Operations Manager\3.0\Setup where all DB and DW details are present. Can you let me know where should I add Command Timeout Seconds to get rid of event 31551 and 31552 events. - Anonymous

Hi Kevin, I hope all is well. we are seeing a number of 29181 event on the Management Servers, all related to SnapshotSynchronizationworkItem timeout issues. Artile (https://blogs.technet.microsoft.com/silvana/2014/09/04/eventid-29181-snapshotsynchronization-not-taking-place/) suggest to implement key HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Microsoft Operations Manager\3.0\Config Service->New DWORD CommandTimeoutSeconds - is this required in 2016?Thanks- Anonymous

I generally don't recommend extending snapshot timeout. Most of the time extending a timeout is like placing a band aid... on a gushing wound that really needs stitches.I would first try and understand what's unique about your environment that is causing snapshot to fail. First - how long does it run before it fails? Does it fail often then complete with success?Is this SCOM 2016?What OS?Snapshot runs once per day - and should complete with success. It is normal for it to fail a few times every night, but it should have a successful completion, once per day.SELECT * FROM cs.workitemWHERE WorkItemName like ‘%snap%’ORDER BY WorkItemRowId DESC- Anonymous

Snapshot only runs once a day. Random failures are FINE as long is it completes every day. What was the output of the SQL query?- Anonymous

No, it is not safe to say that. 10's are bad. But again - it is ok to haver snapshot job failures, AS LONG AS you get at least one "20" per day, which means that it was able to complete with success, once per day.

Thanks, the issue we are seeing is that the SnapShotSyncronization engine work item never seems to recover after 25hr period, so for example a 29180 does not get generated. Other Work flows, such as GetNextWorkItem engine work item, will generate a 29181 and recover with a 29180.What I am unclear about is when we get alert Microsoft.SystemCenter.ManagementConfigurationService.SnapshotWorkItemMonitor (generated by monitor Snapshot Sync state) - I see WorkItemStateId 10 for the server (when running the query). Will SnapShotSyncronization engine work item automatically rerun? Even with restarting the Config Service I don't see 29180 logged for SnapShotSyncronization engine work item - is this normal behavior?Its random why see this on some servers not other.Thanks again
