Description:
The Independent Management Architecture service terminated with service-specific error 2147876886 (0x80060016).
Cause:
Cannot connect to the database using the given credentials. Something corrupted the dsn file or the file cannot be found.
Solution:
Reconfigure the database connection using the following command:
Dsmaint config /user:SQLusername /pwd:SQLpassword /dsn:"c:\program files\citrix\independent management architecture\yourdsnfile.dsn"
Also make sure that the registry is pointing to the correct file: ([HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Citrix\IMA]
"DataSourceName"="K:\\Program Files\\Citrix\\Independent Management Architecture\\MF20.dsn")
