WHS Errors: Cqsvc.exe and MediaSmart Server Software Update

I have had a WHS server at one site for nearly three years. They use it just for backups, and that’s all I ever really check on a quarterly basis for them.

Today, while reviewing this server, I opened up Event Viewer and noticed a slew of warning messages related to “cqsvc.exe” and error events related to “MediaSmart Server Software Update”.

I quickly located a solution from Kelvyn Taylor’s website which workedbeautifully for me. Simply remote into the WHS server, and from a command line prompt, run:

winmgmt /resyncperf

No rebooting of the server required. When you go back into Event Log you will find that things are nice and quiet!
