Thanks. I have updated accordingly. That error message is gone.

But I am getting another warning message as follows:
Data Collector: System Processor Use
Threshold: Processor Queue Length>2
Alert: System Processor Use:Warning Condition

I would be grateful if you could let me know of how to solve this issue.

Thanking you.
With regards,

That's not an error, but a Warning that some process is causing an
excessive processor bottleneck.

You'll need to investigate which running processes may be causing this -
IF- it's actually causing a problem. If not, just ignore it.
If the message is excessively frequent or you're seeing a performance
problem, she what's using what in Task Manager and if need be try
shutting down services individually to see which is/are the culprits.

This may also be related to your raw Processor Power, RAM, or other
system specs in pushing processing onto the CPU instead of being handled
on Card/Bus.

Remember that on an SBS Box we run a -lot- more processes than the
average Dedicated Server does in an enterprise environment so you'd
expect the CPU loads to be a bit higher.
