OpsMgr 2007: Windows Local Application Health Rollup Showing Warning/Error

I had a problem with a faulty health status showing up on my System Center Operations Manager 2007 console.  An agent (the SCOM server itself) was telling me the "Local Application Health Rollup" under "Performance" was unhealthy.  There health in the underneath objects was healthy.  There were also no associated alerts on the server itself and performance was OK.  Therefore there was a glitch in the health status rollup.  I tried to reset and refresh the health but that did nothing for me.

I did two things to resolve this glitch and get everything back to green:

  1. I navigated to the Computers view in Monitoring and double-clicked on "Health Service" on the affected agent.  This opened a new window showing the state of the health service on this agent.  On the Actions menu, I selected "Health Service Tasks -> Flush Health Service and Cache".
  2. I restarted the OpsMgr Health Service.

A few minutes later I the health status in Health Explorer was reset to green.

BTW, it’s strange that the MS spell checker in Windows Live Writer does not recognise the word "Rollup".  It’s valid in MS Word.
