Cause

A Service account does not have the Read-Only Analyst role granted in SCCM and it does not have WMI Remote Activation permissions on SMS Provider.

Resolution

Ensure that user accounts that are going to run Parallels NetBoot Server Configuration Wizard and Parallels NetBoot Service do meet prerequisites.

After that, re-run Parallels Netboot Service Configuration Wizard or go back to the first step if it is already started, and proceed with the configuration.
