When you try to push a Windows System Center 2012 Operations Manager agent from a Windows Server 2012-based management server to a Windows Server 2012-based agent server, the installation fails and you receive the following error message:

The Operations Manager Server failed to open service control manager on computer server2012agent.contoso.local.
Therefore, the Server cannot complete configuration of agent on the computer.
