PVSS00opc - IMPL/SEVERE - OPCServer, initialize, Could not start OPCEnum on remote server: hostname

Enclosed you'll find the explanation for a log-message which can occur during runtime or when starting the OPC-client. The log-message is written to the PVSS_II.log-file.

PVSS00opc (3), 2011.11.14 14:12:06.730, IMPL, SEVERE, 54, Unexpected state, OPCServer, initialize, Could not start OPCEnum on remote server: 10.119.105.71

Log-message with symbolic names:

PVSS00opc (3), <TIMESTAMP>, IMPL, SEVERE, 54, Unexpected state, OPCServer, initialize, Could not start OPCEnum on remote server: <hostname>

This log-message describes that the PVSS-/WinCC OA-OPC-client could not start the OPC-server at the computer given at the keyword <hostname>.
If this log-message occurs please check the DCOM-settings at the remote computer using the program dcomcnfg.
An explanation for the DCOM-settings can be found at the PVSS/WinCC OA-online help.

To check if the problem only occurs when using the PVSS-/WinCC OA-OPC-client you could install another OPC-client at the same computer where PVSS/WinCC OA is installed. Afterwards please check if a remote startup of the OPC-server is possible with this OPC-client.
If startup is also not possible the problem might not be caused by the PVSS-/WinCC OA-OPC-client.
