I have the same problem posted before in:

http://www.myitforum.com/forums/m_146518/mpage_1/key_/tm.htm#146518

"SMS Distribution Manager is starting to distribute package "Microsoft Updates Tool" to distribution point "["Display=\\ESSVPD0T2001\"]MSWNET:["SMS_SITE=0T2"]\\ESSVPD0T2001\".

The machine ESSVPD0T2001 does not longer exists. It has been renamed to ESSVPD0T2010.

The same issue affects several servers that were renamed. However, the package reachs the proper server (ESSVPD0T2010), in stead of SMS tries to distribute the package to old servers.

I've following the issues suggested in the previous post without success.

I cannot do a Preinst /delsite becouse the current server is working fine.
I ran the script SMSDPClean.vbs (I've changed the extension to .txt in order to upload it) so the DP does not appears in any package for distribution.
I also checked the Central and Primary servers SQL DB looking for any entry for the server ESSVPD0T2001, but I cannot see any. My SQL level is very basic, so I'm afraid I'm not looking properly.

So why SMS is trying to distribute package to a non existent DP? And where I must touch in order to correct that?

Thank you all folks!

I've already run the script published by Russ Slaten so in the packages does not appear the server. However, in Admin Console-->Site Status--> Site -->Component Status the SMS_Distribution_Manager component I can see that SMS still tries to send some package to the old server.

Thank you!!

Status: offline 		Searching in primary site DB I founded some tables with the registry I'm interested in (the name of the old server)
There are tables named _CPY_OfferManager_xxx and in an internet search people says that:

"The _CPY_OfferManager_<number> tables are created by Offer Manager when an
advertisement is created. Offer Manager will evaluate the targeted
collection in the advertisement for members and create its own private
membership list instead of using the collection table directly. These are
temporary tables and removed I believe when the advertisement is deleted or
when it expires."

So I deleted the entries where that machines appeard. So far now the problem still there, maybe SMS needs more time...

I'll keep you informed.
