Exporting Settings from Microsoft Office Communications Server gives error 0x80041010


I was exporting the settings for Microsoft Office Communications Server today, using the command line tool LCSCMD.exe.
The output was:
Executing “Export Configuration”
Executing “Validate File”
Executing “Establish WMI Connections”
Check the log file “C:\DOCUME~1\ADMINI~1.OCS\LOCALS~1\Temp\export[2008_07_09][15_39_26].html” for details.
ERROR (0x80041010):
On opening the log file, I was presented with the following helpful unhelpful log file.
Thanks to Google, I searched using the error as the keyword and found out that this error means “An error message of 0x80041010 means that you are trying to reference a WMI class that does not exist.”
The syntax that I used was:
lcscmd /config /action:export /level:machine /configfile:c:\backup\ocsserversettings.xml /fqdn:ocs.blizhosting.com
Where it should be:
lcscmd /config /action:export /level:machine /configfile:c:\backup\ocsserversettings.xml /fqdn:member01.ocs.blizhosting.com
Stupid me… Duh!!
But I think the error in the log file should be more helpful tho.
