SYMPTOMS
========
SMS_SITE_SYSTEM_STATUS_SUMMARIZER may generate an "Access violation" error
message and cause the SMS_EXECUTIVE service to shut down. When this occurs, a
Crash.log file is created that reports the failure.
CAUSE
=====
This behavior occurs because the Network Abstraction Layer (NAL) component in
Systems Management Server (SMS) contains an error code that is not properly
handled.
RESOLUTION
==========
To resolve this problem, obtain the latest service pack for Systems Management
Server version 2.0. For additional information, click the following article

2. Copy the updated Mslmsvrn.dll file to the SMS\Bin\<Platform> folder.
3. Restart the SMS services.
STATUS
======
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Systems Management Server
version 2.0. This problem was first corrected in Systems Management Server
version 2.0 Service Pack 2.
MORE INFORMATION

Manager restarts it on its next cycle. You can end up with multiple Crash.log
files.

problem occurs is:
